More news philosophy from channel 4. Paxman and Snow go at it. Snow is extremely confident, even winding Paxman up for even thinking of going for his job at Channel 4. They talk about how the BBC has changed. Jon Snow tries to break down Twitter for Paxman, who misunderstands the role of social media, and this forms a parallel to how they view the function of journalism in socitety. Jon Snow says with news you can lead people to water, Paxman says he doesnt want lead anyone, he just wants to find out stuff and inform people.
