Have just listened to Alistair Campbell's grilling by John Humphy's on the Today programme.You can listen to the full interview,but it really turned into a battle of wills between the two.
Humphry's in particular had axe to grind.He was at the centre of the David Kelly affair being in the hot seat when Andrew Milligan was being interviewed.Campbell thought that he should be one of the four people to be sacked following the Hutton enquiry.
The main argument though was Humphry's insistence that Campbell was to blame for the dumbing down and trivialisation of political reporting. Not true says Campbell,there has been a decline but I am not to blame.
