5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent legal guide for any serious journalist, April 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The First Amendment and the Fifth Estate: Regulation of Electronic Mass Media (Hardcover)

As a News Director at a top TV market, it is crucial I provide sound advise to my young reporters about their responsibilities and liabilities when pursuing a story. The First Ammendment and the Fith Estate should be requiered reading for all young journalists (and even some older journalists could refresh their knowledge with this book). I look forward to the next edition as we face a whole new world with Cybernews and DTV.
