How a Political Story Cuts Through
Changes at the Mail and an interview in Belarus show the power of the press.
A faltering speech by Boris Johnson has Westminster journalists in a spin. The government changed its stance on lobbying following attacks in the Daily Mail and other bits of the media. And a BBC interview with Alexander Lukashenko, the President of Belarus, has made headlines. But how much do political stories like these actually cut through with the public?
Guests: Anushka Asthana, Deputy Political Editor at ITV News; Chris Williams, Business Editor at The Telegraph; Joe Twyman, Director at DeltaPoll; Steve Rosenberg, BBC Moscow Correspondent.
Studio engineer: Nigel Dix
Producer: Hannah Sander
