How the media reported on Trump, TV advertising, Sound Women

BBC Radio 4 - The Media Show, How the media reported on Trump, TV advertising, Sound Women

Paddy O'Connell discusses how the media dealt with Donald Trump's rise to the presidency.

Did the media get its coverage of Donald Trump wrong? How healthy is TV advertising? And Sound Women - what did it achieve for women in radio?

Paddy O'Connell looks at Trump's victory in the US presidential election - one that much of the mainstream media failed to predict. Emily Bell and James Delingpole discuss how old and new media covered the campaign and where we go from here. 

Mathew Horsman joins us to analyse the state of TV advertising. 

And, Sound Women - the group set up to raise the profile of women in radio and to get more of their voices on air is closing. Paddy talks to Jane Garvey and Fi Glover about what it achieved.

Producer: Ruth Watts.

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