Newspaper designer and consultant Michael Crozier has worked on The Daily Telegraph, The Times and The Independent among others. He designed The Independent (three times) and a host of other papers around the world. He's currently launching a new English language daily in India. Here are his Best of 2008.
Best old/trad media of the year: The Times as it has unrivalled news coverage as well as the ability to be idiosyncratic, such as devoting page two to editorials.
Best new media of the year: http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/ - a must for all investigative journalists and anyone who cares about the accountability of public authorities and the Freedom of Information Act.
Best story of the year: Barack Obama – the world lives in hope of a fundamental change in the world's most powerful nation.
Prediction for 2009: More journalists being sacked and made to re-apply for a job.
Tomorrow: It's two for the price of one as journalism.co.uk reporters Judith Townend and Laura Oliver choose their Best of 2008. One predicts a punch-up between two media figures. It's a knock-out. Don't miss it.
Rest of the Best of, so far: Paul Linford, Adrian Monck , Grey Cardigan , Jean Morgan, Steve Busfield, Neil Fowler, Ian Reeves, Dominic Ponsford.
