With the press already having taken a beating in some quarters for their failures over reporting Brexit, how worried should we be over the collapse of press standards, and the way the ‘media class’ seems to stand apart from the rest of society?

Claire Fox, Jodie Ginsberg, Daisy McAndrew and Freddie Sayers discuss.
