The Media Show: Reporting from the scene of the Trump shooting

Journalists from ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½, Bloomberg and Getty share their account of a moment in history.

The Media Show hears from journalists who were witness to the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Gary O'Donoghue was reporting live on the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ World Service when the shots were fired, and Hadriana Lowenkron was at the rally for Bloomberg. Anna Moneymaker, a photographer for Getty Images, describes how she managed to capture what has become a defining image of the event.

Some in the US have since accused the media of fostering a hostile environment for politicians, and Ros and Katie discuss the nature of political discourse with Jay Caspian Kang of The New Yorker and Megan McArdle, a columnist at The Washington Post.

Presenters: Katie Razzall and Ros Atkins
