Jean Morgan's Best of 2008

Jean Morgan, ex-chief reporter of Press Gazette and trustee of the Journalists' Charity, names her Best of 2008.

Best old/trad media: Mail on Sunday - "consistent scoop-getter EVERY Sunday".

Best new media: pass

Story of the year: Credit crunch, Robert Peston's scoops.

Prediction for 2009: More consolidation in the UK press will equal less consumer choice.

On Monday: Steve Busfield, head of media and technology at Guardian News and Media, picks his Best of 2008. You won't be able to read this in MediaGuardian. Don't miss it!

Read: The rest of "Best of 2008" so far: Paul Linford, Adrian Monck , Grey Cardigan

Is that a pass on new media because she doesn't believe there are any worthy winners or because she doesn't have an opinion/interest in new media? I'd be interested to know...

It is because she is not connected to the internet. Shocking but true.
