There are some very useful responses to web 2.0 here http://www.englishandmedia.co.uk/mm/subscribers/mmclips/buckingham_mediawebparticipation.php
David Buckingham could be used as a critic of Henry Jenkins - web 2.0 and the blending of old and new media creating a participatory culture whereby people collaborate and share information and ideas. Buckingham suggests that the internet only reaches those who are interested in a particular area and are willing to go and source information about it. He says mass media reaches more people.....what do you think. A very interesting counter argument I think - remember the exam is all about you being able to construct a debate.
