On Wednesday October 28 at 2pm (GMT) journalism practitioners and thinkers from around the world are to give their verdict on world journalism.

Does Jeremy Paxman hold much hope for multimedia? Does Nick Davies think we should save the newspapers? Can Jeff Jarvis persuade us to make like Google?

All these and more will be addressing the big 'crisis' question at Coventry University's world journalism live video conference , supported by Journalism.co.uk and sponsored by Camelot plc.

Is journalism in trouble? If so, how did it come about? What's the way to get out of it, if any? The running order is finalised , the website is live , so set-up a reminder to tune in to follow the event via Twitter ( \#j-crisis ) and watch it live-streamed online.
