You may not have realised this, but over in the US last week, Jon Stewart of The Daily Show was interviewed by Bill O’Reilly of Fox News’ The O’Reilly Factor, where they discussed political coverage, Fox News bias. Only edited highlights were shown on Fox, but they’ve posted the full 42-minute interview and you can watch it below. Worth watching if you have an interest in US news programmes
I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
