Do we need a Hypocratic oath for journalism? Journalist and Author Mic Wright has been into UK newsrooms to deduce whether there's an ethical line beyond, “don’t get sued.” Also on the show: the BBC sets out its stall for charter renewal. PR supremo Will Wood is here to take us through Tim Davey’s wishlist.
All that plus: the AI copyright bill suffers another setback, there’s more job cuts at Disney and Business Insider... And, in the Audio Network Media Quiz, we look at some life hacks... for media hacks. That’s all happening in this edition of The Media Club. Come on in!
