    For Distribution to CPs THE LEVESON INQUIRY INTO THE CULTURES, PRACTICES AND ETHICS OE THE PRESS WITNESS STATEMENT OE JAMES HANNING I, JAMES HANNING of Independent Print Limited, 2 Derry Street, London, W8 SHF, WILL SAY; My name is James Hanning. I am deputy editor of the Independent on Sunday and, with Francis Elliott of The Times, co-author of a biography of David Cameron. In the course of co-writing and updating our book we spoke to a large number of people, but equally I am very conscious that I, at least, dipped into areas in which I can claim very little specialist knowledge, so I would emphasise that in several respects there are a great many people better placed to comment and much of what follows is impressionistic. I hope that what follows is germane to some of the relationships that Lord Justice Leveson has asked witnesses to discuss. I hesitate to try to draw a broader picture, but I hope that some conclusions about the disproportionate influence of a particular sector of the media can be drawn from my experience. My interest in the area under discussion in the Third Module stems from two topics. One is in David Cameron, on whose biography we began work in late 2005, soon after Cameron became Tory leader. The second is an interest in phone hacking at the News of the World. Tory relations with Murdoch Since early 2007, the Conservative leadership has been extremely keen to ingratiate itself with the Murdoch empire. It is striking how it had become axiomatic that the support of the Murdoch papers was essential for winning a general election.

  • 'The Enduring Relevance of Newspapers Speech to the Society of Editors
    ‘The Enduring Relevance of Newspapers Speech to the Society of Editors - Tuesday 20 October 10am. David Dinsmore, Chief Operating Officer, News UK CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY Good morning. I have a confession to make. I’m in therapy. It has been about 40 hours now since I witnessed Scotland lose to Australia in the dying moments on Sunday. I’ve no idea what it was like to be a neutral, but it is many years since I have heard the whole of Murrayfield chanting Scotland Scotland as one – and I don’t think we’ve ever heard that particular roar at Twickenham. For 80 glorious minutes, those bloody chariots were impounded in a secure facility somewhere off the M4. It was a magnificent day. It was an incredible story. For a moment we dreamed: were off to face Argentina in the semis…we could have them…and then you’re just a noravirus outbreak in the All Black dressing room from winning the World Cup. It was not to be. But what a day. What a story. And after tuning into non-stop abuse on social media, I quickly graduated to newspapers and their websites. What were the pundits saying? Why had the South African referee Craig Joubert got it so wrong? Why hadn’t he used the TMO (turns out he was right not to, but I needed a newspaper to clear it up for me), why had he run off the pitch like a scalded cat, not shaking a single player’s hand in the process? Why is it so hard being Scottish? Then I came across this snippet of brilliance from my colleagues on The Daily Telegraph in Sydney – the cheeky bastards had made Joubert man of the match.

  • Two-Faced Sun Shows Rupert Can Swing Both Ways If There's Somet
    Academic rigour, journalistic flair Subscribe Fourth estate follies Trawling through the dustbins of the UK media Two-faced Sun shows Rupert can swing both ways if there’s something in it for him May 1, 2015 5.06pm BST Author John Jewell Director of Undergraduate Studies, School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies, Cardiff University Whoever wins, Murdoch comes out in front. PA/Facundo Arrizabalaga The front pages of the Sun and the Scottish Sun on Thursday morning provided further evidence of Roy Greenslade’s recent assertion that the idea of a national press is a fallacy. In images which appear to have left the twitterati spluttering out their skinny lattes, the “English Sun”, in reference to the imminent Royal birth, had a rather hideous picture of a set of arms cradling a shawl with David Cameron’s head peeping out of the top. “Its A TORY” was the lame pronouncement. In the Scottish Sun, Nicola Sturgeon was portrayed brandishing a light sabre as an eerily misshapen Princess Leia from Star Wars. “Stur Wars” runs the headline, “May the 7th be with you: why it’s time to vote SNP.” The editorial said: Scotland voted No but there can be no doubt the referendum changed the nation. And today The Scottish Sun urges our readers to continue that change and vote for Nicola Sturgeon’s SNP on 7 May. One paper: two visions. The Sun Those expressing surprise that the UK Sun was supporting the Tories while its sister newspaper in Scotland supported the SNP should relax a little and understand that this positioning is nothing new.

This includes all meetings with proprietors, senior executives and editors of media organisations for both newspapers and broadcast media. It does not include those meetings with journalists that ended up in interviews that appeared in the public domain, either in newspapers and magazines. It may also exclude some larger social events at which senior media executives may have been present. This is the fullest possible list assembled from the Secretary of State’s Parliamentary diary, their departmental diary, personal diary and memory. Every effort has been taken to ensure that this is as accurate as possible but the nature of such an extensive exercise means something may have inadvertently got missed.

  • Repairing a Damaged Reputation: My Advice to Rupert Murdoch
    Repairing a Damaged Reputation: My Advice to Rupert Murdoch Patrick Barrow argues that all is not lost for Rupert Murdoch in the wake of Hackgate. ‘Murdoch and his newspapers have become, increasingly, one of a gang of tabloid players all doing what everyone has long suspected, behaving badly. The rest, to the world at large, is detail. Right now, any decent advisor would be telling him that’ My advice to Rupert Murdoch: seize the initiative, the worst is over. Because, unfashionable though it may be to suggest it, Rupert Murdoch, CEO of News Corp, owner of disgraced and defunct Sunday tabloid the News of the World (NoW), eminence grise, bête noire and all round bad lot, may, just may, be out of the reputational woods. To examine why, and establish the basis of any advice he should be given, the evolution of allegations, events and happenstance need to be explained. Circumstances have changed from a point that once looked hopelessly bleak to a point where he may emerge with Mark Twain on his lips, ‘reports of his demise greatly exaggerated’. After the initial furore, and perhaps as much by luck as design, events have begun to run in his favour. Of course, unforeseeable revelations may arise and once again set him back, perhaps irredeemably. At the time of writing (December 2011) that is impossible to predict. But, like the skin beneath a scab, his reputation slowly re-knits, albeit with a very ugly scar. Because the debate is now moving on to wider issues of newspaper malpractice and has retreated from the public mind into one confined more and more within the self-interest of the media.

  • Editorial Complaints to the BBC: January – March 2007 the BBC Handled Over 31,000 Editorial Complaints Between January And
    Editorial Complaints to the BBC: January – March 2007 The BBC handled over 31,000 editorial complaints between January and March 2007. These ranged from a small number of complaints about potentially serious breaches of editorial guidelines through to a much larger collection of views about programme content and scheduling. The key themes which emerged are detailed below: Offence: There were complaints that Kelvin MacKenzie was an unsuitable panellist for Question Time. Complainants referred to comments made in the Sun Newspaper about the Hillsborough disaster in 1989 when Mr MacKenzie was its editor. Some viewers complained about a report in Blue Peter about life in Oman which included the sale and slaughter of a goat. Scheduling: Complaints were received about the unbilled replay of the FA Cup Reading v Manchester United match on BBC One on 27 February which meant Holby City and Life on Mars were not transmitted as originally billed in some listings. There were also complaints that the unbilled replay of the FA Cup Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea match disrupted BBC One’s evening schedule on 19 March. Bias: There were complaints that 9/11: the Conspiracy Files was allegedly biased in favour of the official 9/11 findings. Some of the complaints came from an organised lobby group. A response was posted on the BBC’s Editors’ blog site. Viewers complained that they felt the edition of Panorama which reported on the IVF clinics run by Mohamed Taranissi was biased against him and should have featured other IVF practitioners. Bad Language: There were complaints from viewers who believed they heard strong language used during an edition of Neighbours.
