Roundtable: The Panama Papers
Show Notes
Simon Cox, Investigations Reporter at the BBC; David Pegg, investigative reporter at The Guardian, and Hugo Greenhalgh, Wealth Correspondent at The FT, join Paul Blanchard to discuss their media coverage. This episode: where does the line lie between public and private life, and is it fair to report individuals' private tax affairs? How did the ICIJ choose their media partners, and is collaborative journalism the future? And if the public isn't surprised by these revelations, was the story big enough to dominate the front pages?
