Q's Media Panel reconvened today, for the first time in 2011. Globe and Mail columnist Margaret Wente, founder of Rabble.ca Judy Rebick and Toronto Star publisher John Cruickshank discussed how well the media has handled last weekend's murders and shootings in Arizona.

Take a listen to what they had to say, and let us know what you think. Was the media's focus on political rhetoric warranted? What kind of conversation should we be having?
