Dr. Sharvari Vaidya’s Law & Media is a compact, affordable introduction to media law — the fast-growing intersection of free speech, regulation and the press. It covers the constitutional foundation of media freedom under Article 19(1)(a) and its reasonable restrictions, the law of defamation (civil and criminal), contempt of court and the reporting of proceedings, the regulation of print, broadcast and film (including certification and the Press Council), and the emerging law of digital and social media and intermediary liability.
Privacy, the right to be forgotten, fake news and hate speech — the questions media law now turns on — are introduced with the leading Indian decisions. At an accessible price, it works as a quick reference for the media law paper and a first orientation for journalism and communication students. 2020 edition.
