John Simpson at the Arts Centre

 

Arts Centre

Swindon

Wednesday 16 May 2012

 

How does the British press report key moments in history? What is the reporter’s role in recording things ‘truthfully’?

 

How has Britain been transformed by its ‘free press’? Does the media ever knowingly, or irresponsibly, manipulate events? Can the press ever be truly independent? Would it want to be? Any more questions?

 

Author, World Affairs Editor of the BBC, three-time BAFTA-winner, and award-winning journalist, John Simpson has been to a few places, seen a few things, and found the words to describe them in his book Unreliable Sources.

 

Doors: 6.30pm
