BBC Radio 4 - The Media Show, The media mourns a monarch

Amid the pageantry, was there room for journalism?

The Queen's funeral was the culmination of days of coverage across the British media. The new culture secretary called the BBC’s efforts "phenomenal" and "spot-on". So did the media get the tone right? Were a range of views about the monarchy represented? And amid the pageantry and commentary, was there room for journalism?

Guests: Marcus Ryder, Head of External Consultancies at the Sir Lenny Henry Centre For Media Diversity, Tina Stowell, Chair of the House of Lords Communications and Digital Committee, Ed Vaizey, Former Culture Secretary and member of the House of Lords, Emily Bell, Director at the Tow Center for Digital Journalism, and Stefanie Bolzen, UK Correspondent for Die Welt

Producer: Helen Fitzhenry

Presenter: Katie Razzall

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