Description

THIS WEEK: It turns out video pieces can make good audio too, so here are two recent Viditorials from The Balance, exploring current events with a balanced lens.

And then, we're revisiting the 'prisoner vs hostage' debate in Israel and Gaza - something which the BBC felt it had to apologise for on-air.
