At ten oclock, Clive Myrie will be here wIth a full round up of the days news. First, Its time for the Media Show. Hello. No, dont adjust your set this is the Media Show on the bbc. But that Theme Tune to news at 10 and the Famous Bong is a part of our popular culture, along wIth the high Angle Sweep across london over the rooftops along the thames to meet the face of big ben. All that is part of the iconography of brItish Television News, but who watches the big Network Bulletins these days . More and more Gen Z Ers and millennials are increasingly moving online to get their news and information. Some older demographics, too, are attracted to more partisan, opinionated platforms. Gb news, im looking at you. Even some polIticians are openly disparaging of what they call the mainstream media. So, how can Itv� s news at 10 and Channel 4 news, wIth a soon to be departing john snow, win audiences back . Is It a lost cause in this fractured multimedia age in which we live, or can trust be regained . Well, if anyones got an idea, Itd better be my next guest deborah turness, The Boss of Itn, overseeing news deborah turness, The Boss of Itn, overseeing news on Itv, Channel 4 and channel five, reaching around 10 Million people a day and, on top of all that, having to deal wIth a financial Black Hole that would give anyone nightmares. Deborah turness, welcome to the Media Show. Its good to be here. Thank you very much for invIting me to be on your show. Lets begin wIth a quickfire round. Where do you get your Evening News . What do you watch . I watch, of course, the output of my own platforms because thats, of course, a crItical part of myjob and i always did anyway. So, i watch Itv-news'>Itv News, i watch news at 10 probably a bIt more than Evening News because im often still working for the Evening News. Ill catch up on the Itv-hub'>Itv Hub for that. I watch Channel 4 news, i watch channel 5 news, i also look at Bbc News at 10 as well, and the next day, i will check in on the american bulletins as well because Its just a habIt ive had over the last decade and Its hard to reel yourself away from It. Youve got an impressive cv the first Itor'>Woman EdItor of a Network Tv News show in the uk when you took the reins at Itv-news'>Itv News. You then moved to america to head up Nbc News, and then to become president of nbc, one of americas Three'>Big Three networks. What made you want to get into journalism in the first place . You know, when i was about 15, i started volunteering on a local Ite'>Newspaper SIte that was looking for a reporter in local schools to talk about what was going on in the school. It was the Itching-and-stevenage'>HItching And Stevenage gazette, and i started really enjoying It. And then, as i went from there to start doing local Music Reviews of a local Music Venue that often attracted some quIte good bands, and realised i could get good access behind the scenes and start doing excIting things, even at the age of16, 17. By the time i was at college, i started making plans to launch a student radio station. I did some articles for the London Student newspaper, and Itjust grew from there, really. Then i was given the opportunIty for my year abroad, because i did part of my degree in french, to go and do a postgrad Journalism Course at border universIty. And i spent a year there, and i was completely smItten and i was completely focused on that as my career path. And from there, i was able to do my work experience, not for the french media, but i went to Itn and worked for nothing in the paris bureau, as then was. And that was my kind of Side Door Way into Itn. Yeah, you helped john snow, i understand, uncover a french president ial election. I did, youre very well informed. It was one of those moments, It was a sliding door moment. I was kind of working for nothing, making the tea, etc, and thenjohn Snows Producer fell ill and he needed somebody to go to the South Of France we were in paris at the time to go coverJacques Chirac� s rally. It was the eve of the election, and he was the Prime Minister and he was standing to be president against francois mItterrand, and he just released the french hostages from beirut that day. Hed used his power as Prime Minister to potentially persuade the french electorate to vote for him. These french hostages were national services and theyd been incarcerated in beirut for a very long time. National News Bulletins every night started wIth their faces and the number of days that they have been incarcerated. And i went down to Southern France to meet up wIth the crew. I was 21 at the time, 22, and managed to get an exclusive interview wIth Jacques Chirac and english. John snow made It his lead story, and he pledged to support me and help me get into Itn, so he did. 0k, and help me get into Itn, so he did. Ok, so from blocking off corridors and getting exclusive interviews wIth french leading polIticians, you worked your way up to become head of Itv-news'>Itv News in 200a. How different was the Itv-news'>Itv Newsroom then, do you think, compared to now . Compared to now . Thats a really ureat compared to now . Thats a really great question. Compared to now . Thats a really great question. I compared to now . Thats a really great question. I think compared to now . Thats a really great question. I think whats great question. I think whats wonderful about the Itv-news'>Itv Newsroom is that It continues to be a place of absolute commItment to finding out the truth, to giving up stories that others arent digging up. Theres a real sense of family and that newsroom, and i think if you just look at Robert Moore, hes exclusive on the capItal, injanuary this year, he was the onlyjournalist in The World who was actually wIth those Itol-hill'>CapItol Hill wrIters of as they went into the capItol building, and he told their story from the inside. Having invested a great deal of time, energy and journalism, he got to know the movement, where they hung out and how they communicated, in a way even american media had not. I think that story alone tells us that the Itv-news'>Itv Newsroom of today still embodies those values of really i drywall agile journalism. The greatest scoops comes through because theyre about knowing where the story is in following your gut instinct, and thats what robert did and thats what manyjournalists continue to do today. Thats a rich, Itage'>Deep HerItage whether you are looking at paying marshalls exclusive at camps in many before her, thats what Itv-news'>Itv News does. Many before her, thats what Itv-news'>Itv News does many before her, thats what Itv-news'>Itv News does news does. Im proud To Say that Robert Moore news does. Im proud To Say that Robert Moore is news does. Im proud To Say that Robert Moore is an news does. Im proud To Say that Robert Moore is an old news does. Im proud To Say that Robert Moore is an old mate of L News does. Im proud To Say that Robert Moore is an old mate of mine, and weve spoken to him here on the Media Show about that scope. It was incredible journalism. Media show about that scope. It was incrediblejournalism. Indeed, you had several scoops yourself. Including the 2005 exclusive pictures of the capture of the 77 london bombers. I wonder how that story came to you. The london bombers. I wonder how that story came to Vom Story came to you. The best scoops Ou Aet Story came to you. The best scoops you get are story came to you. The best scoops you get are the story came to you. The best scoops you get are the Ones Story came to you. The best scoops you get are the ones that story came to you. The best scoops you get are the ones that really you get are the ones that really give you the element of surprise, and i remember that day so vividly. So, obviously, just after the 77 horrendous attacks in london, where so many people lost their lives, and everybody was on edge. Then came this news that there was a Raid Happening in these flats in west london. We dispatch our crews and No One knew what was going on, but we were hearing all sorts of sounds and Stun Grenades and milItary action going on. But nobody knew what was going on. But nobody knew what was going on. But nobody knew what was going on. Then we got a call onto the News Desk from somebody who actually lives in the flats and had lIterally a front view of everything happening as the Special Forces came in and raided the flats and arrested the 20 17 terrorists. And this guy has recorded everything. And i wanted footage, he wanted money for It, and It had value. So we got into negotiation, and then abc, the american broadcasters, came in and just blew my offer to this guy for his footage out of the water. They put so much money on the table. I basically called the daily mail. An acquaintance that he couldnt afford this, how can we do this together . Mount a joint bid. I think the tapes were trimmed on out of the back of the flat into a garden thrown out. My producer how to climb over walls to get the tapes and then we had to transfer them because It was the guys on camera. James, one of our amazing correspondence, turned around in time for the Evening News. This unbelievable scoop. No one had a scrap of picture. It had dominated every Media Platform and around The World, and baying, Evening News, headlines exclusive, there is. You talked about headlines exclusive, there is. You talked about Robert Moore saying the best scoops are free. You paid for this one. How much . I best scoops are free. You paid for this one. How much . Best scoops are free. You paid for this one.

And estrangement that failed to predict the It-vote'>BrexIt Vote ultimately, or borisjohnson� s 80 Ity'>Seat MajorIty in 2019.

I think It comes up through Its rich roots through Itv, operation wIth really considerable Grassroots Journalism across the country. I think that does feet up and into the kind of news that Itv-news'>Itv News is.

Its incredibly important to the pluralIty of this country. Its a very important piece of our Media Lamp eight landscape. If Channel 4 is privatised, we will fight for It to be protected.

The Weather Story is a bIt of a lottery over the next couple of days. Generally we are stuck in Repeat Mode under an influence of low pressure, which is producing plenty of frequent, thundery showers. That means that some of us will skip them altogether and others will see some torrential downpours which will continue for much of the day. So, on saturday, most frequent showers first thing will be out to the west and then these are likely to drift their way steadily eastward, driven along by a brisk North West to westerly wind. Temperatures will struggle underneath the sharper showers, wIth gusts of wind in excess of 30 40 mph on exposed coasts and just a maximum of 20 degrees, 68 fahrenheIt. The low pressure shifts a lIttle bIt further east on sunday.
