Tootling

The Commons Public Accounts Committee may like to note that former BBC DG Mark Thompson will be back in blighty on Friday 6th September, giving a lecture (titter not) entitled "Paying the piper".

Mark returns to Oxford for the Reuters Memorial Lecture 2013 - the subtitle is "Re-thinking the economics of newspaper journalism". The next morning he's part of a plenary panel on "The future of journalism", alongside Peter Barron (ex BBC Newsnight, now Google), Nic Newman (ex BBC News Online), John Stackhouse of Canada's Globe and Mail, and Natalie Nougayrede of Le Monde. The session is chaired by David Levy, (ex BBC radio producer and Newsnight reporter, BBC Controller of Public Affairs up to 2007).
