MEDIA REVIEWS
I have not come across any other book that covers this ground in such a focused and authoritative way. It is called'the bible'for a reason.It is difficult to imagine teaching media law without daily reference to McNae's. It is comprehensive,authoritative,and the go-to reference book of the industry,making it invaluable to journalism students.McNaes has provided legal knowledge for generations of reporters and continues to do so. It is essential reading for anyone who needs to know the legal parameters within which journalists must operate.Important detail is clearly signposted. The law is explained with clarity in a way that is relevant to journalists. Legal jargon is explained. It is equally relevant to students and working journalists. McNaes gets it right,and in truth I'd be lost without it,and so would my students.
