This is very new and quite exciting, you are probably used to it because | :00:00. | :00:24. | |
it is the fourth night, but it is new to as! | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
With me are the broadcaster Anna Raeburn and the contributing | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
editor at Esquire Magazine, Andrew Harrison. | :00:34. | :00:34. | |
We have your chair is very low, very low tonight. Let's make a start. | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
The Independent leads with the sentencing of the former | :00:41. | :00:42. | |
Bosnian Serbs Leader, Radovan Karadzic. | :00:43. | :00:43. | |
Genocidal butcher of Srebrenica is sentenced to 40 years, it says. | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
Justice catches up with Karadzic, reports the Guardian. | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
The UK was not told about bomb fears, says the Telegraph, | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
referring to warnings over one of the Brussels bombers that Belgium | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
On the same story, The Times says the brothers suspected of suicide | :00:58. | :01:10. | |
strikes on Brussels Airport may have been planning to build | :01:11. | :01:12. | |
Donald Trump fronts the cover of the Daily Express. | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
He's predicting a Brexit off the back of dismay | :01:17. | :01:18. | |
Animals says the son of the former Sunderland player Adam Johnson who | :01:19. | :01:26. | |
has been jailed for six years the sexual activity with a schoolgirl. | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
New Day also leads with the sentencing of the disgraced | :01:33. | :01:34. | |
And the Daily Mail says foreign workers are being recruited | :01:35. | :01:41. | |
by the NHS are undercutting British staff. | :01:42. | :01:43. | |
We begin with a guardian, and the story of Radovan Karadzic finally | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
hearing his verdict and sentence after many years on the run and in | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
court. Here it is, justice catches up with Karadzic. During his five | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
years coming you chose to represent himself, which might have slowed | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
things down a bit? I think so, but he loves the sound of his own voice, | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
and nobody else does. This story is too little, too late for the people | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
who lost their loved ones, and one of the greatest defences in Europe | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
after the Second World War. There is a terminology here which is missing, | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
I think everybody wanted to hear him condemned to life imprisonment, they | :02:26. | :02:27. | |
didn't want to hear that he was condemned for 40 years. It does seem | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
to have baffled people, a sentence which given his age he probably | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
isn't going to come out, but it is the message it sends. It is the | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
symbolism, and follow-up stories inside the Guardian, relatives of | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
the and the communities affected saying, is the commission not | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
ashamed? If he can't be sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
for this, what can you be imprisoned for? It is a strangely arbitrary | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
figure, as well. May lead to cancer genocide would do it instead of one? | :03:02. | :03:10. | |
Without being flippant,. -- maybe two counts of genocide would do it? | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
Without being flippant, this is the worst atrocity since the Second | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
World War, so I think there is a surprise to it, and clearly people | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
will find that this is not the full justice they were looking for. Not | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
only has he spun it out, which is the only victory he can have at this | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
stage of his life, but he has been handed down a sentence which... | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
There can be no adequate sentence for this, but the symbolism was | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
inadequate. And it was such a long wait for them, but it is very fresh | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
in so many minds, when you see those pictures replayed in the reports | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
after the sentencing, it was only in the 1990s, and it was so close to | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
hear, part of Europe. And yet there was no understanding that, if you | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
did this, you forfeited your rights to be treated as a human being, and | :04:05. | :04:11. | |
he has been treated as a human being in the best justice system that we | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
could devise, and it would have been nice if they had just said, | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
finished, no, end, for the rest of his natural life. It is on the front | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
of the Independent as well, this story. We were speaking to a | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
journalist earlier, Andrew, who said he had done an interview with | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
Karadzic early in the week, and he said, they will never find me | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
guilty. Even right up to now he was saying that. His defence was the old | :04:38. | :04:44. | |
defence of, the leader of the genocidal Government, which is, I | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
didn't know what was going on. This was the individual actions of | :04:49. | :04:50. | |
individual local army commanders and so on. The commission has found | :04:51. | :04:57. | |
otherwise, that he did know what was going on and is ultimately | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
responsible for it. When you reach the very rarefied legal heights of | :05:02. | :05:07. | |
what the leader of the country is doing and can they be held | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
responsible for what is happening on the ground, the president of these | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
things is an Nuremberg, they are the biggest Oracle moments, and this is | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
a big historical moment like that, it is closure. I don't think the | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
verdict is a surprise to anyone apart from Karadzic himself, it does | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
close the book. Letters just turn our attention to the times. -- | :05:27. | :05:34. | |
Times. It says Brussels was plotting a radioactive bomb attack. Tell us | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
about this, it seems a nuclear industry official was being filmed. | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
It is one of those things, it doesn't appear to be worrying until | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
you have something to worry about, and then it is very worrying indeed. | :05:49. | :05:58. | |
Ibrahim and Khalid el-Bakraoui, the suspects in the Brussels bombings, | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
were believed to be involved in an Islamic state plot to scatter | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
radioactive material over a large area. A senior Belgian nuclear | :06:09. | :06:15. | |
official was secretly filmed, according to the authorities, and | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
why did they know about this last year, yesterday the brothers were in | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
the surveillance, they were linked. It is suggested that they were | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
trying to get hold of radioactive material. The concept of a dirty | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
bomb terrorist attack isn't a new one, it is slightly Tom Clancy, but | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
we have to think in those terms now. The Times is definitely spinning at | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
the evidence as far as it will go, but I think that is the way security | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
authorities have to think now, what are the indications of what is going | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
on? Why would they have a nuclear industry official under | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
surveillance, so it is deeply worrying, and it is something they | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
have to factor into future security plans. And they are now guarding | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
Belgian's two Tomic plants with a lot of soldiers, as you might | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
suspect. Staying on this story with a different tack, the Daily | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
Telegraph says the UK was not told about bomb fears, the suggestion | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
that there is a failure somewhere in how Europe shares intelligence. It | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
is the Telegraph, so there is a Brexit cast over this. Saying | :07:20. | :07:27. | |
Britain will be safe outside the EU because we won't there is an | :07:28. | :07:34. | |
argument that we will not be able to share intelligence, but they are | :07:35. | :07:36. | |
saying that in this case it wasn't happening. Anna, you were talking | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
about the very unusual security communications situation in | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
Brussels. I was fascinated, because I knew it is very easy, it seems to | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
me, after the event, the people who are specialists in is available is | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
for the gathering of intelligence, to point fingers and say, Belgium | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
wasn't doing this, they weren't thorough, but the situation in | :08:01. | :08:02. | |
Brussels is quite different from the situation we have here. There are | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
several local police forces, they have to share information and get on | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
with each other, and there is a federal force over the top, and the | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
structure of how information is passed is incredibly clumsy, and | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
that would slow it and distort it as fast as it came. So the issue is not | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
that Europe is sharing it of Asian with written, it is that there is -- | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
not that Europe isn't sharing information with Britain, it is the | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
fact that there is a difficulty with intelligence within Belgium. I have | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
heard on two news agencies tonight that six arrests have been made in | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
Brussels as part of a police operation following those attacks, | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
that is coming from Reuters and the AFP News Agency, so another line | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
coming out there. We are going to look now at Day,... Which camera? We | :08:54. | :09:05. | |
are all over the place! It is because of how they have laid it | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
out. This is a story of Adam Johnson being sentenced to six years in | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
prison for sexual activity of a schoolgirl of 15. We were talking | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
outside about how they have laid this out, and having your view, | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
Andrew, it doesn't work? They are trying to carve out a new identity | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
for themselves is a different newspaper, possibly doing news in | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
less aggressive manner, targeted towards the female reader trying to | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
find a new way of doing it, but this doesn't work, because what this is | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
really, this is what we would call a side bar, not a front page. It is | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
one of those fact boxes that you see in a corner of a feature with a | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
bunch of statistics, the number of football fans who look up to him, | :09:50. | :09:55. | |
the weekly salary, it is statistics, not a front page, and I imagine | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
myself at a newsagent, you can't read that, it is not a bold | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
statement, front-page headline, and I didn't understand it. Is there a | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
different agenda, would women find this easier to read? They might if | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
it were on a magazine front, but I don't think it works, I didn't know | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
any of that it was fascinated to listen to it, you both know more | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
about this than I do, but that isn't a magazine cover, and it won't work, | :10:21. | :10:27. | |
it is a newspaper. But more worrying still is that if this is aimed at | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
women, the bulk readership of the women of this country read the Daily | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
Mail, and this is about as far from the Daily Mail as you can get. I | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
like the colours, if that makes any difference! Let's look at the | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
picture on the Independent of, I thought this was a statue, it is | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
Barack Obama have in impromptu state dinner with a woman who has draped | :10:50. | :10:57. | |
herself over him. It is the tango, they are in Buenos Aires. Body | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
language! You very rarely see Barack Obama look awkward, because he is | :11:03. | :11:08. | |
graceful, but the feet and the way he is holding her is suggested that | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
this girl was told to drape herself over the president, and the cameras | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
would line up, and he looks uncomfortable. He wishes she would | :11:17. | :11:22. | |
go away and sit down! It looks like a stunned, and the one on the front | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
of the times is even more odd, he looks like a statue in his own back | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
garden there. She has flung herself on top of him, and I think you can | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
read from his facial expression that he wants this to end. It is a great | :11:36. | :11:43. | |
front-page picture, and surely old -- old-fashioned picture editor on | :11:44. | :11:49. | |
the front page, this is part of the formula, but you can feel him dying | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
a little inside. You can. And look at the hand, it is hardly on her. | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
The handset is, I have to put my hand here because otherwise it will | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
look wrong, but I don't want to get involved in this. Michele Knight | :12:03. | :12:09. | |
have something to say. She would look prettier in that frock. It is | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
not nice to have things sprung on you, as I know! Finally, artificial | :12:14. | :12:19. | |
intelligence fails to beat real stupidity. This is a chat robot, an | :12:20. | :12:26. | |
artificial Twitter account, supposed to have created its own personality, | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
and what happened, Andrew? They designed this baying to in valve and | :12:31. | :12:38. | |
learn. That is not the story! Hold on. Here we go. Artificial | :12:39. | :12:46. | |
intelligence fails to beat real stupidity. They programmed this | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
thing, chat robot, to act like people on Twitter. It is supposed to | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
be like a young woman, using slang, being impersonal. And within hours | :12:58. | :13:04. | |
it had evolved to be sexist, misanthropic, racist, and very | :13:05. | :13:07. | |
sexually explicit in a way that we can't describe on the BBC. It became | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
the lowest common denominator almost instantly, and the times describes | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
it, Microsoft's new chat bot does indeed sound like a human, but not | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
someone you want to follow in a hurry! You would run away from it. | :13:22. | :13:27. | |
It hasn't really worked. Finally, it seems it has got harder to win the | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
Lottery. We always knew it was hard, 440 million chances you have of ever | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
winning, but this is such a cruel story. You have to get your five | :13:39. | :13:44. | |
numbers, you match five numbers on the ?25 million national lottery | :13:45. | :13:51. | |
draw, only one of the jackpot, but they earned just ?15. Barely worth a | :13:52. | :14:01. | |
trip to the shop! It isn't worth the bother, is it? I wouldn't be | :14:02. | :14:08. | |
changed. You would still turn up and do the papers for us. | :14:09. | :14:10. | |
It is a bit of trial and error, this then. We will get used to it, won't | :14:11. | :14:18. | |
we? Don't forget all the front pages | :14:19. | :14:20. | |
are online on the BBC News website where you can read a detailed | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
review of the papers. It's all there for you seven days | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
a week at bbc.co.uk/papers. And you can see us there, too, | :14:27. | :14:28. | |
with each night's edition of The Papers being posted | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
on the page shortly What a triumph to see you through to | :14:32. | :14:33. | |
the following day! Now it's time for the weather | :14:34. | :14:40. | |
with Sarah Keith-Lucas. | :14:41. | :14:44. |
