Leveson After Murdoch

podcasts |

The Murdochs may have said little to Leveson, but they certainly set the stage for the politicians to come. Nicholas Jones discusses the future of the inquiry with Ann Field, Joy Johnson and Tim Gopsill.

In their evidence to the Leveson Inquiry, Rupert and James Murdoch left more questions unanswered than resolved... but their testimony was definitely a telling curtain raiser to the forthcoming appearances before Lord Justice Leveson of past and present Prime Ministers and ministers.

In a new podcast recorded for the Campaign for Press and Broadcasting Freedom, a panel of commentators give their assessment of where the Leveson Inquiry should go next after the Murdochs’ testimony.

Nicholas Jones was joined by Ann Field, organiser of the exhibition commemorating the 25th anniversary of the Wapping dispute, Joy Johnson lecturer in politics and journalism and former director of media for Ken Livingstone as Mayor of London, and Tim Gopsill, former editor of The Journalist and currently editor of the CPBF’s journal Free Press.
