I'm the BBC's media correspondent and this is my brief selection of what you need to know.

BBC 6 Music, threatened with closure, won two Sony Radio Academy Awards last night. The BBC and Telegraph report that Radio 4 won six, 5 Live was named UK station of the year. Commercial radio won 12 awards.

The Independent reports Charles Moore, former editor of the Daily Telegraph, has been fined £262 for refusing to pay his TV licence as long as Jonathan Ross was employed by the BBC.

Gordon Brown's decision to stand down as Labour leader following the general election dominates Tuesday's papers says the BBC newspaper review.
