Summary
We look at a moment where crisis, media and culture begin to blur together, from growing questions around war, energy shocks and the possibility of new restrictions, to a widening clash between legacy media and independent voices over who controls the narrative. At the same time, controversy around a major BBC drama raises deeper concerns about how entertainment, information and public perception are increasingly intertwined.
