Reporting Sensitive Material

Veteran journalist Robin Lustig on hard line interviewing and reporting sensitive content. Plus, is the BBC programme Hardtalk too hard?

We investigate why an episode of Hardtalk received so many complaints. Rajan Datar speaks to long-standing BBC broadcaster Robin Lustig to get his views on walking the line between interrogation and rudeness. And, following the rerun of a Newsnight interview on the BBC World Service with the mother of a Columbine massacre shooter, Robin talks about the intricacies of handling sensitive information.
