Updated 10.50am: Will Lewis will NOT be turning up to the world editors' forum after all (see posting below).
A PR acting for News Corp's management and standards committee tells me that Lewis withdrew as speaker "some time back" because of the Leveson inquiry.
She said: "I thought the organisers were made aware of this."
Lewis's name has been billed on the WAN-IFRA site for a good while (see here), and I was informed by email that he would be taking part.
The PR says she will now approach the organisation to have his name taken down.
10:50am: A WAN-IFRA editor emails me to say: "We have just been informed that Will Lewis will not be coming to Vienna as he has been advised against public speaking."
