This thoroughly updated classic textbook provides an overview of communication and media law, including the most current legal developments. It explains laws affecting the daily work of writers, broadcasters, public relations practitioners, photographers, bloggers and other public communicators.
By outlining statutes and cases in an accessible manner, even to students studying law for the first time, the authors ensure that readers acquire a firm grasp of the legal issues affecting the media. The book examines legal topics such as libel, privacy, intellectual property, obscenity and access to information, considering the development and current standing of relevant laws and important cases. It examines how these laws affect public, political and commercial communication. The 13th edition covers contemporary U.S. Supreme Court cases, including the true threats case Counterman v. Colorado, the Andy Warhol fair use case and the Jack Daniel's trademark parody case. It also presents the Biden administration's revision of policy on the use of subpoenas and search warrants to uncover reporters' confidential sources along with the gag orders imposed by courts handling criminal and civil trials in which Donald Trump is a defendant. Further cases explored include the attacks by legislatures against the LGBTQ community, exemplified by a Tennessee law banning drag performances, and the emerging issues presented by artificial intelligence and the content moderation policies of social media platforms.
The Law of Public Communication is an ideal core textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses in communication law and mass media law.
