"The new edition of McNae's Essential Law for Journalists has been fully updated to encompass recent and forthcoming changes in the law as they affect journalists. It is essential reading for journalists and journalism students, and increasingly for media law practitioners.The book is required reading on journalism courses accredited by the National Council for the Training of Journalists and provides the background legal knowledge required for the award of an NVQ in regional newspaper journalism. With the growing complexity of the law faced by busy journalists in their day-to-day work, McNae is becoming an increasingly necessary quick-reference book in newsrooms."
Tom Welsh, Editor of the MEDIA LAWYER newsletter. Walter Greenwood, Law Consultant, Trinity Mirror Training, Newcastle upon Tyne, formerly editor (training), Thomson Regional Newspapers and Chair, Law Examinations Board, NCTJ.
