The BBC's world Affairs Editor has become one of the most recognisable and trusted British journalists. His reporting has won a number of awards including Royal Television Society Journalist of the Year for his reporting from Belgrade, and an International Emmy Award for his report on the fall of Kabul. He received a CBE in the Gulf War Honours. Over the years he has transferred his skill to writing books with best-selling success. In his latest publication, Unreliable Sources, he turns his eye on how Great Britain has been transformed by its free press, and asks whether the press can ever be truly free - and whether we would desire it to be so?
