Editorial signature

Produced by ITN under a contract with the publicly owned Channel 4, the hour-long 7pm bulletin is presented by Krishnan Guru-Murthy and Cathy Newman and is built around long-form interviews and overseas reporting from correspondents such as Lindsey Hilsum and Matt Frei. The Cambridge Analytica exposé with the Observer, the Dispatches strand, and the 2017 Newman / Jordan Peterson interview define the brand's combative, accountability-led editorial register.
