Welcome to the explanation from the BBC World Service.
This is Ros Atkins and me, Katie Razzle, and this is the Media Show.
We're here to explain the trends behind the fast changing media landscape.
On this week's Media show, we'll go behind the scenes of a new BBC expose of the late billionaire Mohammed Al Fayed.
We'll look at the battle for viewers on late night TV in America.
And we'll talk to the man running a TV news network in Afghanistan.
Mohammed Al Fayed was the flamboyant billionaire whose investments once included the luxury department store Harrods and one of London's best known football clubs.
Al Fayed is now the subject of a new BBC documentary that's been released this month which shows him in a very different light.
It's called Al Predator at Harrods and it features over 20 women making allegations of sexual misconduct against him.
And as you'd expect, it's very disturbing.
When I walked through the doors to start my job there, I was excited.
At no point in time did I ever anticipate being on the receiving end of an attempted rape.
I joined Harrods because I wanted to be a buyer and I ended up working for an absolute monster.
I think he damaged me some way.
He's just left a scar.
In the days since the investigation was released, more women have come forward to share their experiences.
