The "close relationship" between parts of Scotland Yard and the media has caused "serious harm," according to Elizabeth Filkin's recent report.
"Watch out" for "late night carousing, long sessions, yet another bottle of wine at lunch - these are all long-standing media tactics to get you to spill the beans. Avoid," she says.
New rules governing how the police deal with journalists are now being implemented as a result of her report.
In a lunchtime event on Wednesday 22 February, Danny Shaw, BBC News home affairs correspondent, will be discussing this report with:
Panel
Elizabeth Filkin, author of The Ethical Issues Arising from the Relationship Between Police and Media
Jeff Edwards, president of the Crime Reporters' Association and recently retired chief crime correspondent for The Daily Mirror, where he reported for 23 years.
When
1.30 - 2.30pm Wednesday 22 February
Where
Room 4, 6th floor suite, Television Centre
BBC staff only.
