The Observer: The News Meeting live
Thursday, 30th April 2026
6:30-7:30pm
RSA House and online via YouTube
Have you ever been curious about how the news agenda is set and why certain stories lead the front page?
In a live recording of The Observer podcast, The News Meeting, you'll get a chance to see and hear how conversations shape the news agenda. You'll get an insight into how newsrooms around the world decide what leads the news, what follows and in what order during their daily editorial conferences. You will be able to have your say, share the stories you think our panel of editors should be talking about, and watch leading journalists battle it out to make their story the lead of the day.
Joining the evening's line-up are The Observer's national news editor, Claudia Williams, climate editor, Jeevan Vasagar, and RSA Fellow and chief political commentator, Andrew Rawnsley. Together, they’ll bring insight, expertise and lively debate to the stage as they argue to deputy editor in chief Giles Whittell for what should top the news agenda.
Be a part of The News Meeting live and help set the news agenda.
