This is the first textbook to explicitly integrate both media law and ethics within one volume. A truly comprehensive overview, it is a thoughtful introduction to media law principles and cases and the related ethical concerns relevant to the practice of professional communication. With special attention made to key cases and practices, authors Roy L. Moore and Michael D. Murray revisit the most timely and incendiary issues in modern American media.

The Fourth Edition includes new legal cases and emerging issues in media law and ethics as well as revised subject and case indices. In addition to a separate chapter devoted exclusively to media ethics by Michael Farrell, a new chapter on international and foreign law by Dr. Kyu Ho Youm has also been added. Resources on the companion website include updated PowerPoint presentations and a sample syllabus for instructors, and a glossary, chapter review questions, chapter quizzes, and all seven of the book’s original appendices for students. An excellent integration of both law and ethics, this is the ideal text for undergraduate and graduate courses in media law and ethics.

Mass Communication Law and Ethics (Routledge Communication Series)

Those picking up a book filled with examples and discussions of laws regulating speech by advertising and public relations practitioners may be puzzled since the First Amendment clearly mandates freedom of speech or of the press. How can there be laws regulating any speech--let alone advertising or public relations--in the face of the Constitution's emphatic statement? The first text to respond to the growing interest in law courses for those involved in advertising and public relations, Advertising and Public Relations Law breaks new ground in each respective field. The book shows how many issues and ideas affect the regulation of advertising and public relations speech including: *the categorization of different kinds of speech afforded different levels of First Amendment protection; *court-created tests for laws and regulations of speech; and *non content-based restrictions on speech and expression. {Advertising and public relations students can no longer afford to escape training in law, as demonstrated by the increasing number of suits against advertisers, corporate communicators, and advertising and public relations agencies for copyright or trademark infringement, appropriation, and unfair and deceptive commercial speech. Clearly, anyone entering either field must be well-versed in the law.} This text was written to serve the instructional needs of upper-level undergraduate and graduate students. Also designed as a standard reference source for advertising and public relations practitioners, this clear, concise, comprehensive, and well-written and designed law text should prove an invaluable addition to their libraries.
