Alison Kervin is a pioneer in women's sports journalism. She was the first female editor of Rugby World and the first female sports editor of a UK national newspaper. Kervin's eight-year spell at the Mail on Sunday has just come to a close so he has started up a media agency for athletes. Oh, and she is a successful novelist too.

If she was editing this piece, undoubtedly 'the line' would centre on her gender-based breakthroughs. After all, that is why she was awarded an OBE. But Kervin's spell at the Mail has coincided with huge disruption in the newspaper industry, sparked by digital transformation. She reveals the skills and knowledge she has had to acquire for the 'new' media age and the core abilities every storyteller still requires.

Is the lack of female sports journalists down to confidence?

The growth of digital in newspapers since she took over at the Mail on Sunday sports editor in 2013

Concerns of speed being much more important than quality in the digital age

The problem of SEO-based 'churnalism' driven by clicks

The shortening of feedback loops

The difficulty of shareability

How does Alison measure the success of female sports journalism these days?
