Podcast cover: The News Meeting

The News Meeting

In every newsroom around the world there’s a daily meeting to decide what leads the news, what follows and in what order – usually behind closed doors. In this podcast, The Observer wants to change that, and invite you in.

Why are UK voters so anti-establishment? Why can’t we name the Putney Pusher suspect? And why is the government banning teenagers from having AI relationships? 


Jeevan Vasagar is joined by The Observer’s Sarah Dear, Stephen Armstrong and Cat Neilan as they battle it out and pitch the top stories of the day.
