- Video: Hilaire Bollock – BBC regional presenter makes testicle goof.
- Media Guardian: MEN Media and NUJ settle dispute – Strike ballot called off. Less redundancies than originally planned but local offices will still shut.
- Radio 4 Today: 13/04/2009 (iPlayer expires 20 April, 9am) Last 10 minutes, Paul Bradshaw and Will Hutton on the future of the regional/local press. Bradshaw: "There's an expectation that 'the news will find me'… Businesses focus on monetising content and that's not actually what most newspapers have done in the past. What they've really been doing is monetising audiences. In print the best way to do that was to sell advertising against it. Now online, advertising is much cheaper, Google is a massive force… you need to think more creatively about how you monetise that audience that you have."
