Danny shares what it really means to cover court cases where people’s lives hang in the balance and the need to be very careful not to prejudice the proceedings. Listen as Danny talks about the challenges of reporting on prisons, a place which the public do not really understand nor have access to, and the importance of self-care when reporting on difficult issues.
