Somehow I missed this one from Media Network earlier.

The Media Show: new weekly programme on BBC Radio 4
July 7th, 2008 - 12:06 UTC by
Andy Sennitt

Journalist and former TV executive Steve Hewlett is to present BBC
Radio 4's new topical programme The Media Show, to be broadcast live
all year round from 1 October 2008 every Wednesday at 1.30pm UK time.
The show will focus on the fast changing world of media in all its
forms - print, television, radio,
online and telecommunications.

The programme will engage with key players from within the industry,
including those making the decisions, driving the changes and
developing the latest technology. Subjects such as creativity, culture
and censorship within the media will be discussed alongside those of
business and ethics. As the media
world converges, with newspapers expanding into audio and video while
radio and TV networks move online, The Media Show will shed light on
the issues faced by the industry at large.

Steve Hewlett says: "I hope the programme will be able to lift the lid
on many of the current stories within the media, offering genuine
insight and intelligence, making this show a must-listen for both
those within the industry - but always accessible to a wider audience
of those interested in a subject that effects all our lives."

The Media Show will be available via podcast. BBC Radio 4's former
media programme The Message ran from 1998 until May 2008, in three
series a year. The new show is to run 52 weeks a year which will
enable Steve Hewlett and his guests to react to current industry
stories and issues of importance to the media world.
