UK Hacking Trial Verdict ; Nigeria Abductions

World Have Your Say

Available for over a year

We hear international reaction to the former British newspaper editor, Andy Coulson, being found guilty of conspiring to hack phones. Mr Coulson was editor of the News of the World, which was once Britain's best-selling newspaper. He also worked as communications director for the British prime minister, David Cameron. We hear from people who have followed the case closely. What does this mean for the media in Britain? How does it affect how British journalism is viewed abroad? We also hear from Nigeria where more than 60 women and children are said to have been abducted in northern Nigeria by suspected militant Islamists.
