Is there a crisis in world journalism? How did it come about? What's the way to get out of it, if any?

These are just some of the questions being addressed by leading industry figures at Coventry University's world journalism live video conference, supported by Journalism.co.uk and sponsored by Camelot plc, next Wednesday (October 28, 2pm).
