Send us a text The BBC has pulled off a journalistic coup, with a radio interview given by President Trump to the BBC’s Senior correspondent in America, Gary O’Donoghue. For me, it had a special resonance with the time during which I examined the relationship between the BBC and the leader of the then British government, Boris Johnson.
