Media bans for sports journalists, Vice's new women's channel, Clarkson on Amazon Prime

The Media Show

The National Union of Journalists (NUJ) has called on the Football Association to act on a "worrying trend" among its member clubs of handing out media bans. It comes days after Scottish football columnist on The Times, Graham Spiers, along with a BBC journalist, was banned from Rangers. Andrea Catherwood talks to Graham Spiers, who explains how his journalism has impacted on relationships with football clubs; NUJ President Michelle Stanistreet about her concerns over clubs having this power, and Professor Tim Luckhurst from the University of Kent about how the rise in clubs' own TV channels, websites and blog sites are increasing the control they yield.

The expanding digital media brand Vice has launched a new women's interest channel. "Broadly" says it will cover stories affecting women that the mainstream media fails to cover properly. It will run in partnership with the multi-national consumer goods company Unilever and cover subjects including politics, sex and fashion. Andrea Catherwood speaks to Editor in Chief Tracie Egan Morrissey about the channel's editorial remit, and what she thinks women want from a news provider.

Former BBC Top Gear presenters Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond have been signed up to present a new show on Amazon's streaming video service. They'll front a new motoring programme on Amazon Prime - with the first season available in 2016. Andrea Catherwood talks to Michael Underhill, TV analyst at Enders Analysis, about the platform's market position and how it hopes the trio will boost its offering. And Mark Wells, former ITV controller of Entertainment, discusses how the deal marks a moment that sees top talent no longer beholden to free to air broadcasters like ITV and the BBC.
