The Media Show: Can NPR survive Trump’s cuts?
NPR, one of America’s most prominent public broadcasters, is facing potential funding cuts following moves by President Trump.

Katherine Maher, CEO of NPR, outlines the organisation's stance and shares her plan for survival.
The Hajj in Mecca has become a huge media event but reporting from it poses significant logistical and editorial challenges. With two million pilgrims and thousands of journalists attending, media access requires strict accreditation from the Saudi authorities. Shehab Khan, Political Correspondent for ITV News, shares his experience.
Apple’s long-standing manufacturing presence in China has helped it achieve unmatched production scale. However, this dependence may now leave the company vulnerable amid shifting US trade policy. Patrick McGee, Financial Times reporter, discusses his new book Apple in China.
