Affectionately known simply as McNae's, this book prevails as journalism's most succinct authority on media law since its inception in 1954.
The new edition captures the essence of this hotly debated and evolving area of law. The authors' expertise in media reporting and teaching ensures McNae's is accessible for students and journalists, giving you the essentials and encouraging intellectual acuity as the complexities of the law are laid bare.
McNae's practical approach includes features that highlight important information, such as case detail, need-to-know points, and cross references that explore how different elements of the law interact with each other.
Published in partnership with the National Council for the Training of Journalists, McNae's is an indispensable media law guide that imbues confidence in students and supports and assures journalists undertaking their everyday work.
