How hard is it to report on the ground in China? Journalists covering the recent floods found their presence was not always welcome. Major titles - including the New York Times - now have their China correspondents based outside the country. And Steve Vines, The Observer's man in Hong Kong since the 1980s, said this week that it was no longer 'safe' for him to be there. So what is the situation for journalists in China - and for those trying to cover the country from afar?

Guests: Amy Qin, China correspondent for the New York Times; Sha Hua, China correspondent for the Wall Street Journal; Steve Vines, veteran China correspondent; C茅dric Alviani, East Asia Bureau head for Reporters without Borders; Meera Selva, Deputy Director of the Reuters Institute.
