Journalism is ALL about credibilityReaction has been fierce to Independent writer Johann Hari's admission that some of his quotes came from his subjects' books rather than his interviews with them. It's a lesson. Trust is the basis for journalism. Break that contract with the reader and expect to be punished.

Interview technique and the Miliband LoopIt's hard to believe Ed Miliband's PR handlers wanted the interview to turn out like this. He was so determined to get his carefully crafted sound bite on TV that he repeated the same answer over and over, no matter what question was put to him. Fine until the uncut video goes viral. But political interviewing is a game where both sides know the rules. Similar interviews happen all the time. Mr Miliband's problem was that he played with no finesse.

Journalism in Egypt's revolution3 February 2011: in the maelstrom of the Egyptian revolution, journalists are becoming a target. As the New York Times' Nicolas Kristof Tweets: '[The Egyptian government] is trying to round up journalists. I worry about what it is they're planning that they don't want us to see.' Mubarak seems to believe that if he wants to suppress the rebellion he also needs to suppress the flow of information. But, for now at least, the journalists are inspired to bravery by the Egyptian pro-democracy protestors and this important story is still getting out.

Student protests and police reactionStudent protests at Millbank were marred by violence and there is no doubt that crimes were committed. But with blogs being shut down and people being arrested for attempted murder, could the police response in the aftermath be seen as heavy-handed?
