Abstract

The media landscape is ripe for reform, from poorly regulated social media to the BBC’s future, to unfinished business dating from the Leveson Inquiry. These might seem as very contemporary problems, but Clement Atlee’s 1945 government faced challenges of a similar nature, argues Damian Tambini. Starmer’s Labour can learn from the Atlee’s Royal Commission for Journalism, but also needs to go beyond it.
