And a Big Bad Wolf.
Everybody knows the story. Everybody knows the end.
It’s a tale we hear at bedtime, one we’re told at
school. Full of huffing and puffing and chinny chin chins. Of Wolves blowing
down houses in an attempt to get in.
The Big Bad Wolf becomes the hapless victim, the
cute little pigs the perpetrators. And the story isn’t set in stone; it shifts
with the views of the public. As people text, type and tweet new avenues open
up; different points of view unravel and reverse.
Rather than be dictated to us, the story is shaped by us.
Cleverly The Guardian positions itself as a newspaper that listens to its readers, and by doing so, discovers the truth. A truth that others have missed.

But the message doesn’t stop there. The Guardian goes
one better. In possession of the facts its readers don’t simply sit back and
relax, they act. Empowered, the Guardian readers campaign for
change.
In the Guardian’s advert the paper
proves itself to me a master story teller – finding the truth, sparking debate
and stirring action.
This fairy story, with a twist, packs a powerful
punch.
