Answer

I’m not sure I’m very impartial here because I work for the BBC News so I’m terribly partial. I’ll give you the honest answer – where I tend to for choice, is still fairly BBC skewed really – if you’re looking at television, the main things I consume are News 24 and the 10 o’clock news from the BBC. If you look at Radio, I’m a great 5 Live fan just because of the passion and the tone that 5 Live actually brings to it. For newspapers, I’m much more likely to read all of them, there are ones which stand out, I mean actually I always like to look at the Daily Mail because I think the Daily Mail really knows its audience and there is a way into what is actually going on in Britain that you can get from the Daily Mail that you won’t get elsewhere. And I think there is something in that which makes it well worth reading each day. If you are looking at web sources I guess the other place I start apart from the BBC site is, you do look at Google News because there you’ve got such a good digest of what is being talked about, different sources for it, sometimes surprising things. And you know the power of Google News and the reasons it’s growing so fast are precisely because of that – the very easy way to get at a wide range of stories. Because of what I do, you tend to flick through a lot of them [newspapers] as opposed to just reading one. But I will often read the Times, the Mail or the Telegraph. MORE!
