The News Agents

Former fox anchor and holder of a 4 million strong YouTube fan base Megyn Kelly has told her supporters how unjust it is that Russell Brand has been put behind bars.
Why are MAGA influencers jumping up and down to defend a rapist? Even those who’ve pressed Trump to release the Epstein files.
And is that dinosaur viewpoint pervasive here in the UK too? We ask Women and Equalities minister Bridget Phillipson.

Despite the best legal representation money could buy, Russell Brand was sent down for over ten years yesterday after a jury UNANIMOUSLY convicted him of rape. Today, again despite a lengthy legal battle and costly high court injunction, David Walliams was outed as the celebrity who had threatened suicide after allegations about him surfaced.
Victims came forward in both cases to journalists, not the police first. Are we seeing a cultural sea change? Is this MeToo Two? Or did it never really go away? And why are so many whistleblowers and survivors being silenced through the civil courts? We ask Zelda Perkins - who blew the whistle on Harvey Weinstein.

We will bring you the Judge's sentencing of Russell Brand in the minutes after it happened - but we start with the White House where Trump's response to election wipe out is to double down. Why has he brought in the advocate of the mass deportation strategy to be his Chief of Staff? And is Trump's America about to get even harder right? We ask the MAGA architect, Steve Bannon, about the results, the Republican party and his own relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

The Democrats led a ‘blue wave’ across America, taking control of both the Senate and the House in Congress, and leaving Donald Trump all but powerless in his remaining two years in the White House. Trump may have been defanged and neutered by the results of the midterms, but that man will be the “backseat driver” of the Republican Party for many years to come.
This Friday, Mehdi Hasan joins Lewis to dissect where it all went wrong for Donald Trump, and why, even after he leaves the White House, Trumpism is here to stay – and likely to get more extreme.

What really happens behind closed doors at one of the biggest football clubs in the world?
Two disastrous Premier League seasons. More than £500 million spent on transfers. Three managers in a matter of months. Tottenham Hotspur needed more than a change of manager — they needed a complete football reset.
In this special episode of The Sports Agents, Spurs CEO Vinai Venkatesham takes Gabby Logan and Mark Chapman inside the boardroom to reveal the decisions, difficult conversations and extraordinary challenges involved in rebuilding a Premier League giant.
From Daniel Levy's departure and the sackings of Thomas Frank and Igor Tudor to appointing Roberto De Zerbi, Vinai explains what went wrong at Tottenham, how major transfer decisions are made and why the club's football operation needed such a radical overhaul.
Plus, the challenge of replacing Harry Kane, the next generation of Spurs talent, and what it will take to restore Tottenham to the top of English football.
An inside look at the money, power and personalities shaping the future of Tottenham Hotspur — and what it really takes to run a Premier League club.
