Author Description

This set is a completely updated (to August 2005) specialist legal practitioners' guide to the law on privacy and the media. It considers the rules applicable to disclosure of personal information by journalists and broadcasters, the remedies available to individuals whose privacy has been unjustifiably infringed and the principles on which such protection is based. Cases analysed include the House of Lords judgment in Naomi Campbell v MGN Ltd, the European Court of Human Rights judgment in Von Hannover v Germany, and the Court of Appeal judgment in Douglas v Hello!. The Law of Privacy and the Media is essential reading for all those who act for or against the media, as well as those with a general interest in the subject.
