Media Law

Media Law

The aim of this book is to analyse media law in relation to specific areas both in terms of its practical application and its theoretical framework. Part 1 concentrates on the regulation of media content and is largely written from a pro media point of view. Its central tenet is how far does the English media enjoy freedom of expression and the way in which that impacts on how the media operates. It considers how the Human Rights Act 1998 impacts on the media. Part 2 moves on to look at the regulation of the media industries as a whole. Part 3 focuses on day to day transactions for the media. In particular it focuses on provisions from typical media agreements and aims to provide a context for the law which has been outlined in Parts 1 and 2. The structure of this book bridges the gap between a traditional textbook and practitioner work and provides a book which will be of interest to law degree and LPC students and practitioners.

Celebrity and New Media Gatekeeping Success

Celebrity and New Media Gatekeeping Success

This book looks back to the early days of new and social media to examine the potential threat that such technologies and platforms posed to the mainstream corporate media’s gatekeeping and its ability to exploit humiliate and even violate famous women. Drawing on her own experiences working as part of this gatekeeping system Stephanie Patrick argues that in order to combat this threat the mainstream media doubled down on gendered narratives of meritocracy that legitimized certain (male) celebrities over others. Using a range of case studies spanning old media sites and new including Disney Playboy and reality television this book demonstrates that sexual exploitation and violation could be considered constitutive of female celebrity rather than a side effect. Patrick’s case studies include some of America’s most (in)famous celebrities including Miley Cyrus Lindsay Lohan Anna Nicole Smith Paris Hilton and Donald Trump urging readers to question their assumptions about these figures and their public trajectories. This nuanced exploration of patriarchal capitalism and women’s ongoing sexual exploitation by the media will be an important reference for scholars and students of digital and new media journalism celebrity studies and gender studies. | Celebrity and New Media Gatekeeping Success

Commercial Culture The Media System and the Public Interest

Commercial Culture The Media System and the Public Interest

American mass media are the world's most diverse rich and free. Their dazzling resources variety and influence arouse envy in other countries. Their failures are commonly excused on the grounds that they are creatures of the market that they give people what they want. 'Commercial Culture' focuses not on the glories of the media but on what is wrong with them and why and how they may be made better. This powerful critique of American mass communication highlights four trends that sound an urgent call for reform: the blurring of distinctions among traditional media and between individual and mass communication; the increasing concentration of media control in a disturbingly small number of powerful organizations; the shift from advertisers to consumers as the source of media revenues; and the growing confusion of information and entertainment of the real and the imaginary. The future direction of the media Leo Bogart contends should not be left to market forces alone. He shows how the public's appetite for media differs from other demands the market is left to satisfy because of how profoundly the media shape the public's character and values. Bogart concludes that a world of new communications technology requires a coherent national media policy respectful of the American tradition of free expression and subject to vigorous public scrutiny and debate. 'Commercial Culture' is a comprehensive analysis of the media as they evolve in a technological age. It will appeal to general readers interested in mass communications as well as professionals and scholars studying American mass media. | Commercial Culture The Media System and the Public Interest
