Pope resignation: Media reaction

Duration:
10 minutes
First broadcast:
Sunday 24 February 2013

This week on Over To You, we explore the way the Italian and international media have reacted to the decision of the Pope to stand down.

The BBC's Alan Johnston in Rome and Professor Simon Lee, columnist for The Universe newspaper in the UK, join Rajan Datar to discuss the relationship between the Vatican and the media and ask if this will change for the new Pope.
