In this week’s Q&A, Alan and Lionel are asked where they go for analysis of the situation in the Middle East, including the Israel-Iran war. 

They also discuss diversity in journalism and how cuts have made it a harder industry to break into.

The hosts also are asked about a foreign scheme where young people can access a two year free subscription to news sites…could it work here?
