In today's programme with Steve Hewlett:

Steve interviews Ed Richards, Chief Executive of Ofcom, on some of the key areas in his brief. What, if anything, needs to be done to support public service broadcasting? Is Ofcom willing and able to be part of system regulating the press? How far can Ofcom protect internet users from inappropriate content? What happens to the "watershed" when so many programmes are watched on demand? And does he regret having to disclose that he wanted the BBC director general's job?

Meanwhile, there may be a breakthrough today on the press regulation plans, as the party leaders meet to resolve their differences. Chris Blackhurst, editor of the Independent, talks about what he knows of the latest plans - and why he's frustrated that so many discussions appear to be going in private.

The producer is Simon Tillotson.
