Presented by Steve Hewlett. Featuring the Sun's new ombudsman, Channel 4 responds to criticism of their Drugs Live programme, and could a levy on broadband bills save newspapers?

Philippa Kennedy has been appointed as Ombudsman for The Sun. She will consider complaints and correct errors but how independent of the newspaper will she actually be?

Channel 4 will screen footage of volunteers in a scientific study taking MDMA. David Glover, Commissioning Editor for "Drugs Live", responds to criticism that the programme risks glamorising drug use.

And could a levy on monthly broadband bills be an effective way of subsidising print journalism? David Leigh of The Guardian thinks so, John Gapper of the FT is not so sure.

Presenter: Steve Hewlett
Producer: Richard Hooper.
