Conflicts of interest in PR?
So apparently it is totally fine for it to go completely unacknowledged that Simon Lewis’ brother, Will Lewis, current editor of the Washington Post, is heavily implicated in Prince Harry’s lawsuit against the Sun, having worked for Murdoch for over a decade after the scandal came to light. That would have noooo bearing on his analysis of Prince Harry’s apparently foolish war with the media, correct? Nope, nothing to see here. Silly, Prince Harry. David is the only one saying anything worth listening to on this podcast, but this also reflects poorly on him and the BBC. Is there any shred of media integrity left anywhere in the UK? Acknowledging a potential bias, even if it is to dispel it, should be the foundation of critical analysis. Without it, the conclusions make themselves. PR 101, I guess. But what do I know.

The palace does brief. Already starting the propaganda. Will never listen again.

I love the slow speaking pace of this pod... time allowed to absorb what is being said properly. I like too the interesting and insightful viewpoints offered by these two men who have occupied major media roles, but who do not come across as considering themselves 'celebrities'.Read full review »

It can be fascinating sometimes and a bit superficial other episodes. Love the concept but would like to hear more from Simon and a bit less from David
