Show Notes
Steve Hewlett discusses the rival Royal Charters with acting Times editor John Witherow and Christopher Jefferies, wrongly named by some in the press following Jo Yeates' murder. Is this really a time for further consultation and negotiation?
Charlotte Raven tells Steve more about her plans to bring back Spare Rib, the feminist magazine, 20 years after it closed.
And, as more media Twitter accounts are temporarily taken over by the Syrian Electronic Army, is this becoming as much of a problem for the social media company as it is for the people being hacked? Rupert Goodwins, former editor of technology news website ZDNet, looks at the issues.
Presenter: Steve Hewlett Producer: Simon Tillotson.
