I wrote this yesterday:
This morning's Today programme was guest-edited by Conservative-supportingThat certainly doesn't apply to today's guest-editor, left-wing singer Robert Wyatt, who invited on Tony Benn, Socialist Workers Party comedian Mark Steel, Communist art critic John Berger, and left-wing Specials founder Jerry Dammers!*
crime writer P.D. James. Several of these guest-editors have shown the
programme's usual editorial team how to do it, as concerns lack of bias in
choice of contributors. Baroness James may have requested a right-wing guest,
the ever-entertaining David Starkey, but she also asked for Sunder Katwala,
General Secretary of the Fabian Society, Jack Straw and biased policeman Sir Ian
Blair.
