The Right voice- the Telegraph sale, the Dacre diaspora and the rise of GB News

The Right voice- the Telegraph sale, the Dacre diaspora and the rise of GB News

This event is exclusive to Friends of Tortoise

This is a newsroom ThinkIn. In-person tickets are available.

The tectonics of Britain’s media landscape are shifting. Two of the stalwarts of rightwing journalism – the Telegraph and Spectator – are up for sale to the highest bidder. Will they go to billionaire hedgie Paul Marshall, the owners of the Daily Mail, or someone else? What about the steady rise of GB News, Britain’s answer to Fox? Or the lingering influence of Paul Dacre? Who controls the voice of the right in Britain – and to what end?
