Analysis of current affairs reports, presented by Martha Kearney. Including conclusions reached by the committee of MPs investigating phone-hacking.

A committee of MPs which has been investigating phone-hacking at the News of the World has concluded that a number of News International executives misled Parliament over what they knew about phone hacking. A majority of MPs also found that Rupert Murdoch was "not a fit person to exercise the stewardship of a major international company". We speak to the Committee Chairman, John Whittingdale and Labour MP Tom Watson.

Also today, the Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg on the state of the economy, phone hacking, and his party's fortunes.
