The Media Show: Reporting from the scene of the Trump shooting

Journalists from 成人论坛, Bloomberg and Getty share their account of a moment in history.

The Media Show hears from journalists who were witness to the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Gary O'Donoghue was reporting live on the 成人论坛 World Service when the shots were fired, and Hadriana Lowenkron was at the rally for Bloomberg. Anna Moneymaker, a photographer for Getty Images, describes how she managed to capture what has become a defining image of the event.

Some in the US have since accused the media of fostering a hostile environment for politicians, and Ros and Katie discuss the nature of political discourse with Jay Caspian Kang of The New Yorker and Megan McArdle, a columnist at The Washington Post.

Presenters: Katie Razzall and Ros Atkins
Producer: Simon Richardson
