‘A masterful and elegant
appraisal of the keythemesand
arguments ... it combines a lucid
explanation of the most important
elements of legal doctrine and
democratic principle with perceptive
analysis of the complexities and
nuances involved in deciding a legitimate
role for the media, especially in the context
of a fast-changing digital environment.’
Media law is a fast-developing area of scholarship
that raises many high-profile and controversial questions.
Recent issues include the use of privacy injunctions, the
regulation of the press, the political power of media moguls,
mass leaks of government information, and the responsibility
of the digital media to prevent the spread of extreme content
and fake news. This study looks at these issues and the key
debates in media law. The book includes chapters examining
the protection of personal rights to reputation and privacy, the
administration of justice, the role of government censorship, the
protection of the newsgathering process, the regulation of the
media and the impact of digital communications. The analysis
is grounded in an account of media freedom that looks at the
important democratic functions performed by the media and
journalism. Examining various key themes, this study shows how
those functions continue to evolve in a changing political culture
and also how the media are subject to a range of legal and
informal constraints. The book asks whether the law strikes the
right balance in protecting media freedom while preventing the
abuse of media power, and considers the future of media law in
the digital era. it is essential reading for students and scholars
of media law alike.
