Media Talk: Reporting from the front line

Matt Wells is joined in the studio for this week's Media Talk by Stephen Brook and Dan Sabbagh.

We start by hearing Martin Chulov in Libya, who tells us how foreign reporting is being influenced by social media.

Next, we chew over Elisabeth Murdoch's clamber back onto the Murdoch succession ladder, as her company Shine is bought by News Corporation for £415m.

Finally, as Sir Michael Lyons is replaced as BBC chairman by Chris Patten, we analyse the key challenges in the new job.

Have a listen and post your feedback on the blog below.
