How has Rupert Murdoch used his media empire to influence the political world? It all goes back to a secret meeting in 1981 between Murdoch and Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. David talks to Harry Evans, former editor of The Sunday Times and The Times, about what happened at that meeting. From Murdoch’s relationship with Thatcher to his courting of Tony Blair and David Cameron, he tries to get to the bottom of how and why Murdoch has seemingly sought out political influence. Is he motivated by ideology, power or is it simply good business?

He talks to David Yelland, editor of The Sun when Tony Blair was Prime Minister, about how political influence actually works and explores what impact Murdoch’s newspapers have had our culture and society as well as on individuals. We’ll hear from Sharon Shoesmith, former director of Haringey Children’s Services, who found herself at the centre of a tabloid media firestorm over the Baby P affair in 2008.
