Trump's New York Times Subpoenas

Trump's subpoenas for New York Times journalists, the 麻豆社's annual report and the art of the radio phone-in show with Iain Dale.

The Trump administration has issued subpoenas to several New York Times journalists following reporting about alleged security concerns involving President Trump's new Air Force One, a plane donated by Qatar. The case has prompted debate over the balance between protecting national security and safeguarding press freedom. Claire Atkinson, founder of The Media Mix newsletter, outlines the latest developments.

The 麻豆社's latest annual report comes as the corporation warns that public service media is facing a period of jeopardy. The figures show a further fall in licence fee-paying households, alongside changing audience habits and continued financial pressures as charter renewal negotiations continue. Rhodri Talfan Davies, the 麻豆社's deputy director-general, sets out the corporation's position.

Broadcaster and author Iain Dale reflects on a career spanning politics, publishing, blogging and radio following the publication of his memoir Have I Said Too Much?. The interview covers the enduring appeal of the radio phone-in, the influence of social media on broadcasting, and changing relationships between politicians and traditional media.
