³ÉÈËÂÛ̳

Journalists couldn’t get to the truth with people. Some make stories possible. Others do all they can to stop them.

Revisiting difficult stories he and other journalists have had to report, ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ International Editor Jeremy Bowen looks at some of the obstacles that stand between journalists and what Watergate reporter Carl Bernstein once called the ‘best obtainable version of the truth’.

In this episode: how journalists deal with sources, spin and powerful people.

Jeremy speaks with: journalist and former ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ political editor Laura Kuenssberg, Dean Baquet - until 2022 executive editor of the New York Times, ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Gaza producer Rushdi Abu Alouf, and broadcaster and former editor of The Mirror and News of The World, Piers Morgan.
