Public outrage prompted by an answerphone scandal – sound familiar? It must be time for another Media Talk Extra podcast, dedicated to dastardly deeds at the News of the World.
It's a story straight out of a James Elroy crime novel, with a powerful media baron, dodgy hacks, private investigators lurking in the shadows, wads of cash, politicians, spin doctors, the police and a fair sprinkling of A-list celebrities to boot.
Matt Wells is joined in the studio by Jane Martinson and Julian Glover to analyse the ins and outs of the Murdochgate scandal. What now for Andy Coulson (and David Cameron)? Who else at News International knew about the extent of hacking operation? And where does it leave the PCC and the system of self regulation? Roy Greenslade and the man who broke the story, Nick Davies, are on hand with their expert opinion.
Leave you comments on the blog below - and don't forget there are two other media podcasts out this week: Media Talk USA and Media Talk Live.
