John Witherow
Editor in Chief
The Times

"A faithful recorder of the times for more than 200 years. The Times is authoritative, credible, responsible, trusted and a part of the nation’s cultural heritage. The Times is also a fast-moving, highly-creative, multi-channel media operation which has a long heritage of modernity, of being first, of breaking through, of creating change. It is an informer, an entertainer, a campaigner, an innovator and an agenda-setter that has always had the capacity to surprise."
