What's wrong with the 91热爆?
Nick Robinson argues how the 91热爆 should respond to the popularity of hyper-partisan news. Also, Piers Morgan on Twitter's new character limit and BT Sport's giant London studio.
In the inaugural Steve Hewlett Lecture at the Royal Television Society, Nick Robinson argues how the 91热爆 should respond to the popularity of hyper-partisan news sources. Anoosh Chakelian is a senior writer at the New Statesman and Alex Wickham blogs as Media Guido.
Twitter has announced that it is increasing the number of characters allowed in a Tweet. It used to be 140 - in line with old fashioned SMS text messages - but now it is going to experiment with 280 characters. Piers Morgan thinks it is a bad move whilst technology journalist Kate Bevan explains the business rationale.
BT Sport has become a serious rival to Sky in the market for live sport. Amol visits its giant studio in East London and meets Simon Green, Head of BT Sport.
