The state of the media industry with Chris Blackhurst


Listen Later

Chris Blackhurst, distinguished business journalist, spent decades in the engine room of the British media. In this week’s episode with Victoria Palmer-Moore, Chris conjures the changes wrought on Fleet Street by the death of the 9-to-5 - and the dawn of the information age. 

From journalists to business leaders, corporate affairs directors to newspaper proprietors, Chris describes the seismic influences which shaped an industry previously known for typewriters and long lunches into today’s press powerhouses, battling to make money in an era of free content.
