The Media Show - 06/07/2011
The phone hacking scandal at the News of the World moved to another level this week after it emerged that private investigators working for the paper hacked the phone of Milly Dowler after her abduction.
As further revelations about phone hacking come to light and MPs call an emergency debate, The Media Show hears from the experts about what this means for the News of the World and its owner News International.
Have the allegations about phone hacking irreparably damaged the paper? And can Rebekah Brooks, who was the editor at the time phones were hacked, continue?
Steve Hewlett hears from Lord Fowler, who has launched a campaign for an official inquiry, Bob Satchwell of the Society of Editors, Stuart Purvis, former partner at the media regulator Ofcom, Ben Fenton of the Financial Times and Dan Sabbagh of The Guardian, about what the latest developments mean for the British press.
