The Media Show - 18/11/2009

The chairman of the Press Complaints Commission, Baroness Buscombe, responds to criticism of the recent PCC report into allegations of phone tapping at the News of the World, which found no evidence of wrongdoing. The editor of The Guardian newspaper, Alan Rusbridger, has called the report 'worse than pointless' and 'dangerous to the press'. India Knight gives Steve the inside story of her interview with Dr Brooke Magnanti, the woman behind the Belle de Jour blog. Dr Magnanti's decision to talk to India at the Sunday Times spoilt the Daily Mail's plans to reveal her identity. James Partridge has a facial disfigurement and he has been reading the news on Channel 5 this week. He will be telling Steve why he hopes this is more than a gimmick. Media consultant Tim Suter gives his reaction to the changes at ITV, from the appointment of Archie Norman as the new chairman to the plans laid out in the Queen's Speech to replace ITV's regional news programmes.
