Piece Description

Join us for an extraordinary, extended interview with Sir Harold Evans, the revolutionary British newspaper editor and former president and publisher of Random House.

Evans talks to host Mike Cuthbert about clashes and reconciliations with Rupert Murdoch, using investigative journalism to right the wrongs of those in power, and the process of starting over in his 60s.

We open with a story of a young Evans who realized one fateful day, Mike says, that "what he read and what was real were not necessarily the same thing."

"The rest of his life, in a way," Mike says, "was an attempt to tell it the way it was."

Listen to learn more, including Evans' take on the future of journalism, and to hear an excerpt from his new memoir, "My Paper Chase: True Stories of Vanished Times."
