Event: New media stuff, and when I go up against Dan Hannan

I hope Daniel Hannan MEP can tell the difference between Sunder Katwala and I this time, as I’ll be debating him next week.

The world of the media is changing as fast as everything else. A politician makes a speech ignored by the conventional media and it gets 1 million hits on utube. The world of Blogs forces a resignation of a chief government adviser before the daily newspapers know what is going on! The new social media is challenging the conventional news elites as never before.
Politicians and their established lobbies are running scared. The new social media has blown a hole through the existing elites. What does this mean for the future? Speakers include:
Daniel Hannan MEP
Carol Haslam – producer
Professor Barrie Axford is the author of the book “New Media and Politics”
Sunny Hundal (some blogger)
