With the media module, image fields in D7 require the following changes to generate alt tags, which should be the default:

Please check - I hope that I am wrong: I have been waiting for them to fix it since am using the "Open Outreach" distribution http://drupal.org/project/openoutreach & bypassing the problem until fixed.
I tested both the 2.0-unstable and dev versions:

Media Module
Which version of the media module are you using?
I don't use it, but have been watching the issue queue - http://drupal.org/node/1307054
I think that the fix should be in the next release. It's taken a long time though to get through.
