Steve Hewlett gets to the heart of the BBC Strategy Review with the man who wrote it, John Tate. He used to work for the Conservative Party and wrote reports for the shadow cabinet. What was his original vision, and was it affected by the BBC power brokers fighting to protect their interests? Media commentator Dan Sabbagh looks at the way the BBC story has been covered. Adam Boulton is Sky News's political editor and he will chair one of the prime ministerial debates in the run-up to the election. The three candidates say they are looking forward to it but, with all the rules and restrictions, is he? Why are there so many true life stories in today's newspapers and magazines, and where do they come from? Natasha Courtney-Smith runs a website to draw in readers' stories - Talktothepress.co.uk - and she shares some of the secrets of her trade.
