Affectionately known simply as McNae's, this book prevails as journalism's most succinct authority on media law since its inception in 1954.

McNae's practical approach includes features that highlight important information, such as case detail, need-to-know points, and cross references that explore how different elements of the law interact with each other.

Published in partnership with the National Council for the Training of Journalists, McNae's is an indispensable media law guide that imbues confidence in students and supports and assures journalists undertaking their everyday work.

Recenzijas

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. * Professor Marie Kinsey, Emeritus Professor of Journalism Education, University of Sheffield * 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. * Dave Porter, Senior Lecturer in Journalism, Manchester Metropolitan * 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. * John Battle, Head of Legal and Compliance at ITN * 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. * Karen Nicholson, Senior Lecturer, Nottingham Trent University *
