Reporting the Predator at Harrods
Behind the scenes on the 成人快手 expos茅 of billionaire Mohamed Al Fayed. Also, the battle for viewers on late night TV in America, and the man running a TV network in Afghanistan.
Mohamed Al Fayed was the flamboyant billionaire whose investments once included luxury department store Harrods and a Premier League football club. He was the father of Dodi, who was killed alongside Princess Diana in 1997. Fayed died in 2023, and the 成人快手 has released an investigation that portrays him in a very different light. Erica Gornall, director of Al Fayed: Predator at Harrods, and Henry Porter, former UK editor of Vanity Fair, discuss the story.
In the run-up to the US election, the competition for viewers among the TV networks is ferocious. CNN - led by its British boss Mark Thompson - thinks they may have a secret weapon for Saturday nights; a US version of Have I Got News For You. Jimmy Mulville of Hat Trick Productions is the brains behind it, and Nayeema Raza, co-host of Semafor's Mixed Signals podcast, gives her verdict.
Saad Mohseni co-founded the Moby Group, Afghanistan's largest media company. Despite the Taliban being back in power, his TV channel, TOLO, still broadcasts news and educational programmes - and uses female anchors.
