About this listen
In Part 2 of the press and England sport pod, Bill, Rob, and Nick take on one of the biggest ethical questions in journalism: does the press go too far in pursuit of a headline?
Using the historic but high-profile sting operations involving Sven-Göran Eriksson and Sam Allardyce as flashpoints, the trio explore where the line sits between exposing wrongdoing and manufacturing a scandal. When reporters set the trap, steer the conversation, and shape the narrative, are they uncovering the truth - or creating a story that didn’t really exist?
The discussion digs into the ethics of “gotcha” journalism, the pressure to feed the news cycle, and how these tactics affect public trust - not just in the press, but in the people they target.
