Henley Literary Festival: Martin Brunt

“Call Martin Brunt, he knows everything before we do” is what The Times said Suffolk Police told a rival journalist; so who better to give us insight into crime reporting? On air with Sky News since its inception in 1989, Martin Brunt has been the channel’s crime correspondent for over three decades. In No One Got Cracked Over the Head for No Reason the True Criminals podcaster looks at the press-police relationship, the impact of social media and why some crimes are ignored and others grip the nation.

In conversation with Jon Ryan.
