Letter: Legitimate concern

Sir: I wrote an article (Media, 30 March) about the journalists' Oscars of last week, known as the Press Awards, which took place at the London Hilton. I am quite happy to acknowledge that Neil Wallis, editor of The People, did not describe the broadsheet newspapers as "broadsheet bastards" when he jumped on the stage at the end of the awards and berated his broadsheet colleagues for unfairly walking away with the majority of the awards when he did not believe they deserved them.
