EXAMINING THE EDITOR: Tom Fitzpatrick.
Description
This week’s guest on the podcast is Irish Examiner editor, Tom Fitzpatrick. Tom talks about the challenges in today’s media world, from attempting to provide a fact based and balanced newspaper, both in print and online, to protecting journalists who are often targeted by those intent of creating divisions and hatred.

And he tells why despite the challenges and long hours, he still gets a buzz from being at the centre of telling the news.
