International Libel and Privacy Handbook - A Global Reference for
Journalists, Publishers, Webmasters, and Lawyers
Book description
Publishers, journalists, and authors can be sued for violating legal
standards thousands of miles away from where they work. This book,
written primarily for journalists and editors, but of use to their
lawyers, explains risks publishers should understand prior to
publication, steps to take to avoid legal conflicts, and available
defenses in the event of a claim. This new second edition of
International Libel and Privacy Handbook
is an updated nation-by-nation summary of libel and privacy law written
by local practitioners in an easy-to-use reference format covering
Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the Americas.
Glasser's second
edition includes new chapters on emerging media markets such as the
Middle East and Malaysia, as well as thorough legal updates on all
major media nations.
Charles J. Glasser Jr. is global media counsel to
Bloomberg News. Before joining Bloomberg, he represented a wide range
of broadcasters, magazines, and newspaper publishers. He has litigated
many of the issues covered in this book.
