Synopsis
A practical guide for writers and other journalists whose job brings them into contact with the law. Suitable for students and trainees in journalism at all levels, this book provides the background legal knowledge required for the award of an NVQ in both regional newspaper and magazine journalism. New legislation and developments in the latest edition include the wide-ranging reporting restrictions proposed in the Youth Justice and Criminal Evidence Bill, which affect access to the courts and the reporting of stories concerning children, vulnerable witnesses and victims of sexual offences. The text also covers the impact on media law of the Human Rights Act 1998; the Data Protection Bill which has a much wider application than the Act which it replaces. A new chapter examines the codes of conduct and explains their increasing importance for journalists in the light of the two previous acts. Also included is the effect of newly introduced procedures on reporting committals for trial; changes in statutory qualified privilege and a new chapter deals with media law in Northern Ireland. Covering a wide range of topics, this book is a reference tool for all those studying or working in journalism.

Essential Law for Journalists
Seller: Sell Books, Elland, YORKS, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
