  • Register of Journalists' Interests
    REGISTER OF JOURNALISTS’ INTERESTS (As at 14 June 2019) INTRODUCTION Purpose and Form of the Register Pursuant to a Resolution made by the House of Commons on 17 December 1985, holders of photo- identity passes as lobby journalists accredited to the Parliamentary Press Gallery or for parliamentary broadcasting are required to register: ‘Any occupation or employment for which you receive over £795 from the same source in the course of a calendar year, if that occupation or employment is in any way advantaged by the privileged access to Parliament afforded by your pass.’ Administration and Inspection of the Register The Register is compiled and maintained by the Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Anyone whose details are entered on the Register is required to notify that office of any change in their registrable interests within 28 days of such a change arising. An updated edition of the Register is published approximately every 6 weeks when the House is sitting. Changes to the rules governing the Register are determined by the Committee on Standards in the House of Commons, although where such changes are substantial they are put by the Committee to the House for approval before being implemented. Complaints Complaints, whether from Members, the public or anyone else alleging that a journalist is in breach of the rules governing the Register, should in the first instance be sent to the Registrar of Members’ Financial Interests in the Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Where possible the Registrar will seek to resolve the complaint informally. In more serious cases the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards may undertake a formal investigation and either rectify the matter or refer it to the Committee on Standards.

  • How Jeb Bush's Allies Tried — and Failed — to Stop Marco Rubio
    News Buzz Life Quizzes Videos More Get Our App! Clay Rodery for BuzzFeed News Whisper Campaigns and “Zipper Problems”: How Jeb Bush’s Allies Tried — and Failed — to Stop Marco Rubio An adaption from the forthcoming book, The Wilderness: Deep Inside the Republican Party’s Combative, Contentious, Chaotic Quest to Take Back the White House. McKay Coppins BuzzFeed News Reporter posted on Nov. 29, 2015, at 8:47 p.m. On the night of the 2010 midterm elections, a portly, silver­haired Jeb Bush stood on a stage in the courtyard of Miami’s luxe Biltmore Hotel, appearing to choke back tears. The beloved former governor of Florida was there to introduce the young conservative insurgent who had just pulled off a remarkable underdog victory in the U.S. Senate race. “Bushes get emotional, so I’m gonna try my hardest,” Jeb told the ecstatic crowd of Republicans. “My wife told me, ‘Don’t cry, don’t cry.’ But Marco Rubio makes me cry for joy!” At the time, it looked like the culmination of a sturdy alliance and deep friendship — the proud mentor presenting his protege. Five years later, however, the two men are locked in a fight for the Republican presidential nomination, and recent headlines suggest the relationship has soured. According to the New York Times, Bush’s super PAC has threatened to spend $20 million in a blitz of negative ads intended “to damage … Rubio’s reputation and halt his sudden ascent in the polls.” And last month, an internal document leaked detailing the Bush campaign’s efforts to cast Rubio as “a risky bet” for donors.

TALBOTT: Good afternoon everybody, I’m Strobe Talbott. Welcome to The Brookings Institution for today’s afternoon event, which is a panel of four distinguished journalists who are going to be talking about a very, very topical subject, right up there. But first I’d like to give you just a little bit of background on how this particular event came about. About three years ago, my colleagues here at Brookings and I felt that, like a lot of revolutions, the digital revolution -- exciting as it is and in some ways may be very positive that it is -- has also produced some victims and one of those victims is long- form journalism. So, to try to keep that genre alive, we’ve launched a periodical series of what we call Brookings Essays. They’re web-based, they take a lot of advantage of new technology, but we keep a premium on high-quality, in-depth writing relevant to the big issues of public policy.

  • Former Fox News Anchor Ed Henry Has Been Accused of Rape and Sexual Harassment in a New Lawsuit
    Former Fox News Anchor Ed Henry Has Been Accused Of Rape And Sexual Harassment In A New Lawsuit buzzfeednews.com/article/salvadorhernandez/former-fox-news-anchor-ed-henry-rape-allegations Ed Henry, a former top anchor at Fox News, has been accused of rape and sexual misconduct in a federal lawsuit filed Monday by a producer and a frequent guest of the conservative cable news network. The allegations come just three weeks after the former coanchor of America's Newsroom was fired after the network said it had received a complaint against Henry over an incident that had occurred "years ago." In the lawsuit filed Monday, an attorney representing Jennifer Eckhart, a former associate producer on Fox Business, and Cathy Areu, a frequent guest across a number of programs, alleged Henry "preyed upon, manipulated, and groomed Ms. Eckhart" to have a sexual relationship with him, asked her to be his "sex slave" and "little whore," and threatened "punishment and retaliation" if she did not comply with his sexual demands. Eckhart also alleges that Henry sexually assaulted her in the office and raped her at a hotel frequently used by visiting employees. The lawsuit also names popular Fox News personalities Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, host Howard Kurtz, and political analyst Gianno Caldwell, claiming they sexually harassed Areu. In a statement to BuzzFeed News, Fox News denied the allegations and said it took "swift action" after learning about the claims against Henry. "Based on the findings of a comprehensive independent investigation conducted by an outside law firm, including interviews with numerous eyewitnesses, we have determined that all of Cathy Areu's claims against FOX News, including its management, as well as its hosts Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity & Howard Kurtz and its contributor Gianno Caldwell, are false, patently frivolous and utterly devoid of any merit," the network said in a statement.
