President Trump has regularly criticised the New York Times and
accused it, and other media, of propagating ‘fake news’. Does its
claim to be fair in its reporting stand up to scrutiny? Hardtalk
is in New York city to speak to Dean Baquet, the executive editor
of the New York Times. The paper has been at the forefront of
reporting into alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 US
presidential election and the first months of the Trump
presidency. Stephen Sackur asks Dean Baquet how far the public
can trust the New York Times' regular use of anonymous sources to
report on the inner workings of the White House.
