Video: Len Downie - Journalism, Obama and the Mid-Terms

Len Downie, the former editor of the Washington Post, gave a Journalism Programme lunchtime seminar on President Obama, the future of US journalism and the mid-term elections.

He discussed the changing face of the media industry in the US, the state of play in US politics, the rise of the Tea Party, the decline of President Obama's popularity and who's likely to gain the most in the mid-term elections.
