Episode Q&A: Do Donald Trump and Reform UK benefit from disproportionate media coverage?

0:00 31:59

In this week's Q&A bonus episode, Christiane and Jamie are asked whether President Donald Trump's MAGA movement and Nigel Farage's Reform UK - two populist political powerhouses - benefit from a disproportionate level of coverage in the media.

They also address why more Republicans don't stand up to Trump - and Christiane explains the challenge journalists face when reporting on controversial topics in the news, from Trump, to Jeffrey Epstein, to the Middle East.

Christiane and Jamie also answer questions about whether the Ukraine War, now in its 11th year, is still receiving the same level of attention it did in the past, or whether “war-fatigue” has set in.
