BBC leadership shake-up, and exposing the secret tax havens of the rich and powerful

BBC Radio 4 - The Media Show, BBC leadership shake-up, and exposing the secret tax havens of the rich and powerful

The BBC leadership shake-up, plus exposing the secret money of the rich and powerful.

The story behind BBC director-general Tony Hall's shake-up of his senior leadership team. And the investigative journalists who exposed tax haven secrets in the Panama Papers.

BBC Director General Tony Hall has revealed his plans to reshape the senior leadership team at the corporation. But it's not what analysts were expecting. We look into what's going on behind the scenes with this BBC reorganisation.
We hear reaction from Ben Dowell of the Radio Times, Daily Telegraph Radio Critic Gillian Reynolds and broadcasting consultant Tim Suter, formerly of Ofcom, the Department for Culture Media and Sport, and the BBC.

Also on the Media Show, the two German investigators behind the Panama Papers - Frederik Obermaier and Bastian Obermayer of the Suddeutsche Zeitung - reveal how they put together the international story that brought down governments and revealed the secret money trails and tax havens of world leaders, criminals and big business.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
