I'm the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳'s media correspondent and this is my brief selection of what's going on.

The National Audit Office will be able to fully examine the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳'s finances for the first time, after weeks of negotiations between the Government and the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Trust reports the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳.

The the coalition government has pledged that the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳'s editorial independence will not be harmed by giving the National Audit Office carte blanche to investigate the corporation's books.

Radio One breakfast show DJ Chris Moyles launched an on-air tirade against the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ on Wednesday, claiming he had not been paid for two months . The ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ reports Mr Moyles as saying matter had been blown out of proportion by the media.

The the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ has defended its coverage of the Papal visit after more than 750 complaints from viewers. More than half were from people who thought there was too much coverage of the visit, or that it was too favourable to Pope Benedict XVI. But others complained that the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ had been too critical of the pontiff.

Feedback presenter Roger Bolton, who was a ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ current affairs editor in the 1980s, has written to the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ in-house magazine Ariel rebuking Mark Thompson for saying the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ had a "massive left-wing bias" thirty years ago, .

The continuing difficulties surrounding the build up to next month's Commonwealth Games in Delhi make the headlines in a number of papers as shown in the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ newspaper review.
