Mishal Husain: The Art of the Interview in an Age of Noise - 261 - Alain Elkann Interviews

A JOURNEY THROUGH JOURNALISM. Mishal Husain is a celebrated British journalist who joined Bloomberg from the BBC, where she presented its leading news programme Today on BBC Radio 4 for over a decade. Before joining Today in 2013, she was an anchor on the international news channel BBC World News. In 2024 she was awarded the Charles Wheeler Award for Outstanding Contribution to Journalism by the British Journalism Review. Mishal has written a Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller family memoir, Broken Threads: A Family From Empire to Independence, and The Skills: How to Win at Work. "The Elon Musk interview is amongst the most difficult that I've done." "I've realised that we are now, perhaps increasingly, again in an age of division." "I hope that in one way or another we still have people who are going to search for the forgotten, overlooked stories."
