Out of London Production, Wildfires and TikTok Bans
Karin Robinson and Rebecca Cooney join Matt Deegan
We’re talking about cities a lot in the show this week. There continues to be much unhappiness about whether shows produced out-of-London really are. Broadcast’s Rebecca Cooney tells us why The Traitors has appeared in people’s cross-hairs.
Meanwhile in LA, the wildfires are upending people’s lives as well as upending TV and award production. Edelman’s Karin Robinson explains what’s been going on.
Plus we take a look at London Live’s demise, and the rise of new online London journalism including the launch of the London Daily.
All that and whether the TikTok ban will actually happen, as well as who in journalism is doing well from YouTube.
