Veteran interviewer Emily Maitlis is set to deliver this year’s James MacTaggart Memorial Lecture at the Edinburgh TV Festival in Scotland. As a senior member of the BBC’s news team for…
’s news team for over a decade, she has covered elections, interrogated Prime Ministers and interviewed numerous celebrities as well as anchoring evening news show “Newsnight” and hosting pdocast “Americast.”
Previous MacTaggert lecture speakers have included actor and writer Michaela Coel, writer Armando Iannucci, media mogul Rupert Murdoch and writer Jack Thorne., described at the time as “car crash” TV due to the royal’s cringe-inducing responses regarding his relationships with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and socialite-turned-sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell. As a result of the interview, Andrew was effectively retired from public life as well as stripped of his patronages.
“The list of extraordinary people who have given this lecture before me makes this an honour beyond belief,” Maitlis said in a statement. “It is a massive privilege – but also a responsibility to get this right. The need to hold power to account without fear or favour is more urgent than ever before. We are good at documenting censorship and intimidation of journalists around the world. But we are sometimes too slow to recognise how and when it is happening in more subtle ways, closer to home.
