In his final edition as presenter of The Media Show, Amol Rajan looks at the challenges ahead for journalism. With help from leading journalists, Amol argues that this is a golden age of media - but a dark age for news. Readers increasingly don't trust what they see in newspapers. Journalists criticise each other in public. And editors have seen much of their power shift to Silicon Valley, where algorithms now decide what people see. What can the media do to fix itself? Contributors: James Mitchinson, Yorkshire Post and Yorkshire Evening Post editorial director; Dorothy Byrne, Channel 4 editor-at-large; Kath Viner, Guardian editor; Helen Lewis, journalist; Piers Morgan, journalist; Andrew Neil, GB News chairman; Brian Stelter, CNN correspondent; Susan Ferrechio, Washington Examiner correspondent; Dean Baquet, New York Times executive editor; the late Sir Harry Evans, former Sunday Times editor; Steve Huffman, Reddit chief executive.
