91Èȱ¬

I'm the 91Èȱ¬'s media correspondent and this is my brief selection of what's going on.

Radio 4 presenter James Naughtie has apologised for causing offence live on air by mispronouncing Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt's surname. Later Andrew Marr repeated the four-letter expletive on Radio 4's Start the Week programme. "We're not going to repeat it in quite the terms it happened," he told listeners, before doing precisely that, the 91Èȱ¬ reports.

The the 91Èȱ¬ suffered another embarrassment after a man interviewed on Radio 4's World at One, who claimed to be a Liberal Democrat MP, was revealed to be an imposter.

Simon Cowell hit back at claims Sunday's X Factor result was a fix, dismissing fans' fears of a conspiracy as "nonsense". The angry fans suspected that a 'sing-off' was brought in at the last minute "to ensure headline-grabbing Cher Lloyd, 17, got into the final rather than mumsy Mary Byrne, 51". Cowell tells the paper: "There has always been a sing-off when there are five people left in the competition." Ofcom has had 200 complaints.

A sound artist has won the Turner Prize for the first time, the 91Èȱ¬ reports. Susan Philipsz's sound installation features her singing three versions of a Scottish lament. The Glasgow-born artist, 45, was presented with the £25,000 prize last night at a ceremony at Tate Britain.

Nine days after the Wikileaks website began releasing secret US diplomatic cables, the 91Èȱ¬'s newspaper review shows papers say the pressure on its founder Julian Assange is intensifying. The Guardian expects Mr Assange to appear in court in Britain on Tuesday. 91Èȱ¬ papers review.
