Media Talk podcast: Rupert Murdoch splits his News Corp empire

Hugh Muir presents a roundup of the week in media – and there's plenty to discuss on this week's podcast.

Lisa O'Carroll talks to Emily Bell (formerly of this parish) about the impact of the decision to split News Corp in two.

Maggie Brown is in the studio to discuss radio, including why the Guardian sold GMG Radio to Global and what it means for plurality in the industry.

And as Mark Thompson eyes a big job at the New York Times, we check in with the race to find the next DG.

Plus Vicky Frost finds out what happens when Gloria Hunniford and John Simpson confront mortality.
