Will the media stand up to Trump 2.0?

In today's episode we have a Newsagents - Ruthie's Table 4 mash up. We’ve been chatting to Bill Clinton's strategist and Democratic supremo James Carville at the River cafe with Ruthie Rogers. What should Democrats have done differently? What was Joe Biden's mistake? And what’s the way back?

But first, we kick off with the settlement ABC News just made to Donald Trump of 15 million dollars after he complained about an interview. Is the media ready to hold power to account this time around? Or is big business just happier to roll over?

You can hear the full conversation with James Carville and Ruthie Rogers on Ruthie's Table 4 podcast in the new year.
