Video: New media and the G20 Summit
Video (11min 28sec): New media and the G20. A look at how new media came into its own at the G20 summit and the proliferation of web censorship in totalitarian regimes.

50 bloggers from the G20 countries covered the meeting.

In fact, the very opposite is true."
