    Mar 27 2026

    Former BBC Director General Tony Hall, who led the corporation through the last Charter review, discusses the appointment of Matt Brittin as the new Director General. We discuss the responsibilities and pressures of the role, the BBC’s use of technology and digital platforms, its approach to arts, religion and other public service content, options for future funding and World Service support, and the relationship between the Director General, the BBC Board and regulators in a changing media and political landscape.

  • Rizwana Hamid on Muslims, the Media and Regulation

    Rizwana Hamid on Muslims, the Media and Regulation
    Mar 19 2026

    Rizwana Hamid is the Director of the Centre for Media Monitoring, which has just published its report, The State of British Media 2025: Reporting on Muslims and Islam. The report concludes that coverage of Muslims and Islam in much of the UK press is marked by systematic bias, negative framing, and contextual omissions, particularly in some right‑leaning outlets.


    We discuss the report’s view that British media coverage of Muslims and Islam has worsened in recent years; the role of GB News, The Telegraph, The Spectator and others in shaping these portrayals; and how public service broadcasters compare. We explore how the Centre compiled its analysis, and the role of ignorance, religious illiteracy, unconscious bias, and the under‑representation and pigeonholing of minoritised journalists in newsrooms.


    We also look at media coverage around Israel–Palestine since October 2023, the influence of better‑resourced advocacy groups, and the report’s call for more effective regulation.
