The fourth edition of 'Media and Entertainment Law' has been fully updated, analysing some of the most recent judgments in media law from across the United Kingdom. The book's two main themes are freedom of expression and an individual's right to privacy. Regulation of the communication industries is covered extensively, including discussion of the print press and its online editions following Leveson, traditional broadcasting regulations for terrestrial TV and radio, as well as media activities on converged devices, such as tablets, iPads, mobile phone devices and 'on demand' services. Intellectual property law (specifically copyright) in the music and entertainment industries is also explored in the book's later chapters.
