"This new edition of Media Law and Ethics is a highly valuable and clearly written guide for media students and professionals who not only want to follow the law but also do the right thing. Through its use of real-life examples, it provides a practical approach to handling legal and ethical dilemmas in an era of rampant disinformation, rapid technological change, and media globalization."
