Share Politics: A numbers game
The new US president has accused the media of lying about the size of the crowd at his inauguration.

Sean Spicer claimed photos were framed to minimise just how much support was on the mall in Washington D.C. For more on this and much more, Share Radio's Simon Rose was joined from Washington DC by William Danvers, Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress, who formerly served under Leon Panetta at the CIA and John Kerry at the State Department.

Is UK dividend growth sustainable, Bovis and Berkeley merger speculation and how has Trump cost Paddy Power Betfair £5m?
UK dividends rose 6.6% in the last quarter of 2016 - great news for investors who focus on getting an income from their portfolios, but can it be sustained?
