Franklin, Anderson and Lidsky's Mass Media Law: Cases and Materials, 8th

This edition provides students with the intellectual tools to resolve legal issues arising from the ongoing dramatic reshaping of the media. It includes new material on matters such as anonymity and foreign law, which have become more urgent because of the transformation of media industries. It covers the established precedents whose fundamental principles will guide the law's response to new threats of censorship, examines barriers to news gathering, and explores impediments to media adaptability. This edition refines and streamlines the materials of previous editions to give students an uncluttered view of the current state of media law.
