The Observer becomes part of Tortoise. Charlotte Tobitt of Press Gazette is here to tell us what happens next.
Also on the programme: BBC Radio faces pushback from Ofcom over its DAB expansion plans, and The Radio Times’ Caroline Frost ponders what we have to look forward to on TV in 2025.
All that, plus: all the gossip from the British Journalism Awards, the continued de-Wallacing of TV... And, in the Media Quiz, we brush up those CVs.
That’s all happening in this edition of The Media Club. Come on in!
