Restricting Los Angeles Paparazzi: California's Legal Efforts
Impacting Free Press Rights is a detailed analysis of California's
anti-paparazzi laws aimed at protecting celebrities' privacy.
Joshua N. Azriel provides an ethnographic, First Amendment-based
critique of the state's privacy and anti-harassment laws and
discusses the broader implications of these laws on free press
rights. Azriel conducted fieldwork acting as a paparazzo taking
photos of celebrities and interviewed paparazzi directly about
whether they comply with the laws, providing readers with insight
into the challenges and ethics of the paparazzi industry and
firsthand perspectives of photographers in the field. Scholars of
media studies, legal studies, and sociology will find this book
particularly useful.
Famous: How Celebrity Lives Affect Our Own explores the effects
celebrities have on their impressionable audience's lives, from
copycat suicides, to postfeminist hypersexuality, to taking
questionable celebrity health advice, and more. Celebrity advocacy
and philanthropy are analyzed as contributors discuss Brad Pitt's
rebuilding effort after Hurricane Katrina, Angelina Jolie's recent
casting controversy, and Colin Kaepernick's national anthem
protest. Star brand building through social media and how that
translates to the Broadway stage are also examined, as well as how
the privacy laws demanded by celebrities can infringe on their own
audience's First Amendment rights.
