Line 10: The scheme has been replicated in New Zealand and Canada.<ref name="Linford" /> == Bristol Mayor dispute == The scheme itself came into the news in June 2022, when the Mayor of Bristol, [[Marvin Rees]] and his council's head of external communications, Saskia Konynenburg, challenged the line taken by LDRS reporter Alex Seabrook in questioning the mayor's {{9000\|mile\|km}} return flight to Vancouver to speak about [[climate change]] at a [[TED (conference)\|TED event]]. Shortly afterwards it was reported that LDRs would not be allowed to attend the mayor's future press conferences, resulting in a boycott of those events by several local news outlets, as well as the BBC and [[ITV (TV network)\|ITV]].<ref name="Sharman">{{cite news \|last1=Sharman \|first1=David \|title=Bristol titles boycott Marvin Rees over council's BBC LDR ban - Journalism News from HoldtheFrontPage \|url=https://www.holdthefrontpage.co.uk/2022/news/rival-titles-boycott-mayor-as-council-bans-local-democracy-reporters/ \|access-date=25 June 2022 \|work=HoldtheFrontPage}}</ref> == References ==
