We have reached the limits of trial by television

Article Abstract:

Some observers are expressing concern about the possibility of the five men suspected of the racist murder of black teenager Stephen Lawrence featuring in a BBC 'Panorama' programme. This development is an indication of the way in which celebrity criminals have now become popular on television. They have engaged a publicist who will help them to become underworld stars, and may be able to demand large sums of money for their story. Allowing the five suspects to appear on 'Panorama,' especially if they are interviewed by Martin Bashir, who interviewed Diana, Princess of Wales, would give them a credibility they do not deserve.

The values of the Sixties become the business of the Nineties

Article Abstract:

The modern business environment is becoming increasingly influenced by left-wing capitalists who are involved in business because they want the world to change. This new type of capitalism runs businesses in order to promote its social agenda, and its key figures do not see profit and loss as their only concern. Many of these new capitalists are involved in services, media and new technology, businesses which provide good opportunities to communicate basic values.
