This book provides a clear and concise guide for the working journalist, as well as a training aid for students for the NCTJ. The book is also referred to by advocates and solicitors involved in media law - an area which has undoubtedly assumed greater importance in recent years.
The numbered paragraphs and extensive index should help the working journalist find answers to practical problems at speed.
