Government
This is an audio recording of an IfG Live Event. How have journalists approached reporting on the Government’s response to Coronavirus? Where does the balance lie between reporting the Government’s message and identifying its failings, potentially undermining its effectiveness? How have journalists coped with the logistics of reporting under lockdown? And what is changing now we are in phase two, with more complicated Government messaging, no routine press conference and the action moving to local rather than national lockdowns?
Jill Rutter, Senior Fellow at the Institute for Government, welcomes:
- Evan Davis, presenter of PM, BBC Radio 4
- Kate McCann, Political Correspondent at Sky News
- Tom Newton Dunn, presenter and Chief Political Commentator at Times Radio and former Political Editor at The Sun
- Jennifer Williams, Politics and Investigations Editor at Manchester Evening News
