Steve Hewlett and guests discuss how the biggest media stories of 2010 may develop in 2011

Steve Hewlett with David Aaronovitch, Anne McElvoy and Peter Bazalgette on the biggest media stories of 2010, including TV election coverage, paywalls and the impact of Wikileaks.

2010 was the year when the media became the story. From coverage of politics under the coalition government to the drive to make journalism pay its way and the impact of the WikiLeaks revelations, stories about the media look set to continue to make headlines in 2011. Steve Hewlett is joined by Times columnist and former BBC executive David Aaronovitch, Anne McElvoy who is former executive editor of the London Evening Standard and soon to write for The Economist and Peter Bazalgette, formerly of Big Brother's Endemol and now a self-styled digital investor. Together they discuss some of the big media stories of 2010 and how they may continue to develop in 2011.

The producer is Olivia Skinner.
