The MediaGuardian 100 list has been released, listing the 100 most powerful people in the media. Influence is measured in the UK, but nominees can be internationally based, and unsurprisingly number one is the American Mark Zuckerberg.
The top 100 this year has been judged on “cultural influence, economic clout and political power” and includes people from newspapers, magazines, television, the internet, politics and independents, but, I notice, no scientists. Of course the list is just one snapshot of power, voted for by a panel, but with sci-comm our business, I wonder: taking a look at some of the people who have made it this year, who in the science world might fancy an early New Year’s Resolution to make it next year?
