8:40 Alex Fergusson MSP on the Scottish Parliament
On a recent visit to NZ, Alex Fergusson MSP spoke to Chris Laidlaw about the 10th anniversary of the Scottish Parliament and the structure of the political system there.
9:06 Mediawatch
Do the news media exaggerate the offence caused by controversies, because it makes their stories sexier? Or are people these days more easily outraged by news they don't like? TV3 journalist Ali Ikram, whose satirical take on sensitive issues has even annoyed some of his own colleagues, give us his view.
Also on the programme - that TVNZ promo starring Bill English and prompted claims of political meddling; and the local paper in Taranaki that's boldly gone three-dimensional. But why?
Produced and presented by Colin Peacock and Jeremy Rose.
