Reporting Charlie Kirk's Killing
Assessing media coverage of Charlie Kirk's killing and the Unite the Kingdom rally. With James O'Brien, Isabel Oakeshott and Guto Harri.
The killing of US conservative commentator Charlie Kirk has raised questions about how the media should report on controversial figures while still showing respect to victims and their families. Meanwhile, in London, more than 100,000 people joined the Unite the Kingdom rally, where Elon Musk spoke by video link. The event has sparked fresh debate about whether using terms like 'far-right' helps explain what happened or risks pushing audiences away. LBC's James O'Brien, Talk TV's Isabel Oakeshott and political commentator Guto Harri give their views on the challenges facing journalism when reporting on divisive stories.
