This book is both an introductory text and reference guide to the
main issues facing journalists today, including social media, fake
news, and regulators. The text covers the law of the United Kingdom
- including Scots and Northern Irish devolved legislation - as well
as human rights and EU laws. This book covers essential areas such
as: privacy, confidentiality, freedom of expression and media
freedom, defamation, contempt of court, regulation of the print
press and broadcast regulation as well as discussions on fake news
and how to regulate online harm. There is a section on intellectual
property law, covering mainly copyright. Court reporting and how to
report on children, young people and victims of sexual offences
receive particular attention in this book with relevant cases in
user-friendly format. The engaging writing style is aimed to
enthuse students, practitioners and lecturers with plenty of
examination and practice materials. The text is packed with
extensive learning aids including case studies, boxed notes, sample
examination questions, appendices of statutes and cases and a
glossary. It is intended as a complete course textbook for students
and teachers of journalism, media, communications and PR courses,
focusing on diploma courses, NCTJ examinations and broadcast
journalism courses such as the BJTC. The book's international focus
would also make it ideal reading for journalists from across the
world who are working in the UK. The book presumes no prior legal
knowledge.
