A crisis at the BBC has been resolved – for now. Its presenter Gary Lineker is returning to broadcasting. His suspension followed a tweet last week in which he called the government’s asylum policy ‘immeasurably cruel’. The BBC has now launched an inquiry into its guidelines, at a time when broadcasters are having to grapple with the private opinions of their staff being shared on social media.

Presenter: Mohammed Jamjoom

Guest:
Aidan White – founder of Ethical Journalism Network.

Qays Sediqi- a former refugee and human rights lawyer.

Steven Barnett- Professor of Communications at the University of Westminster.
