When The News Goes Wrong
Season 1, Episode 8, Jan 26, 2023, 01:00 AM
In today's episode, our host Petrie and her panel of Hacks and Flaks, debate the consequences of what can happen when the news goes wrong.
When the press ends-up persecuting the wrong person, who is to blame and has the Leveson Inquiry done anything to prevent the hounding of those in the public eye?
How could a situation like the one involving Caroline Flack and the Jo Yates murder case have arisen in the first place and what lessons have been learned in their wake?
Hack, Michael Booker, and Flak, Giles Kenningham discuss the instances when they have dealt with the repercussions of mistaken identities, stories about government ministers' families and what happened when a famous footballer was falsely accused of buying a kebab.
Plus, you can still buy Michael's book, although it costs slightly more than one penny. The Business: Amazon.co.uk: Michael Booker:
WARNING: Discussions surrounding suicide and murder occur during this episode.
