Review: "Media Law in New Zealand is an incisive account and analysis of all aspects of the law relating to the media in New Zealand. It is ideal both as a textbook for students of law and media studies and as a reference work for practising lawyers and for journalists and other media professionals. Written in a clear, accessible style, the book covers every aspect of media law, from defamation and copyright to complaints procedures and the reporting of court and Parliamentary proceedings." "The first edition of this renowned work was published in 1974. For the fifth edition, substantial revisions have been made to bring the text completely up to date with the current state of media law in New Zealand."--BOOK JACKET.
