本集简介

Stephen Sackur speaks to the head of the United Nations mission in South Sudan, David Shearer.

South Sudan's lethal cocktail of civil war, ethnic division, failed governance, widespread hunger and disease threatens millions of lives. It represents a tragic failure on the part of the rulers of Africa's newest country, and on the part of the United Nations mission there which has brought neither peace nor protection. What hope is there for the people of South Sudan?

Stephen Sackur is in New York city to speak to Dean Baquet, the executive editor of the New York Times.

President Trump has regularly criticised the Times and accused it, and other media, of propagating 'fake news'.

Dean Baquet is asked how far the public can trust the New York Times's regular use of anonymous sources to report on the inner workings of the White House and whether its claim to be fair in its reporting stands up to scrutiny.
