Victoria assesses coverage of the Liberal Democrats election campaign over the past week and asks which is more influential - newspapers, television or blogging.

Victoria speaks to a British woman, Elizabeth Prosser, who's facing extradition to the United States after a court ruled in favour of her being sent back to the US to face charges of abducting her daughter twelve years ago.

After his apparent success in the first Prime Ministerial debate many of the papers are attacking Nick Clegg. Victoria asks how influential the newspapers are in this election? Trevor Kavangh, Associate Editor of the Sun, Sunny Hundal from liberalconspiracy.org and Dan Sabbagh, the former media editor of the Times join the debate.

Including, a live statement from the Archbishop of Westminster, Vincent Nicholls, on the Catholic church's response to the child abuse scandals and a live statement from Nick Clegg on the donor row.

And, the latest figures shows crime is down - Victoria speaks to police officers and asks if it's a picture they recognise.
