Do courts adequately balance the rights of a free press? Under what
conditions may the government refuse to release information to the
news media? How can society protect itself from deceptive
advertising? First Amendment questions like these are the focus of
Communication Law. This introductory textbook addresses First
Amendment issues that affect the general public, academics,
business people, journalists, government officials, and
broadcasters. This newly revised edition contains descriptions and
analyses of recent and precedent-setting judicial decisions and is
a valuable text for communication law courses in journalism,
communication, and political science departments.
Philosophers, academics and judges have offered opinions regarding
the nature, scope, purpose and function of the ""First Amendment"".
In this volume, Hemmer provides a cursory biography of the authors
of 34 major theories concerning the ""First Amendment"", a brief
excerpt from the author's writing, and, in some instances, a
description of the impact or effect of the theory on legal doctrine
or societal concerns. A thorough bibliography allows a detailed
examination of the primary as well as the secondary sources.
