The Media Podcast with Matt Deegan

The End of Newsnight? Paper domination and YouTube's pod move

Listen on

Episode notes

Is the end nigh for Newsnight? Ratings continue to slide, budgets about to be cut, and they’ve just lost their editor. So what's next for the flagship news show? Media news and analysis with Alex Hudson (Newsweek) and broadcast consultant Paul Robinson.


Also on the programme, a new report show's that just three publishers dominate newspapers, but really, does it matter?


And there's big news from big streamers with YouTube announcing new channels and platforms, while Netflix subscriptions have slowed.


All that, plus in the media quiz... we guess the mystery voice (of news).


A Rethink Audio production, produced by Ollie Peart with support from Matt Hill
