Description:

The question of the regulation of the press is the focus of this book. It examines the existing systems of regulation and the contexts in which they have developed, and explores the social responsibility of the press by assessing its relationship to democracy within Britain.

Synopsis:

Do the Press have a case for asserting their right and moral obligation to call figures in the public eye to account? Or is it time for the government to abandon the Press Complaints Commission and introduce some legislation to deal with the problem? Is there really a problem? The question of the accountability and regulation of the Press has become a central theme of contemporary life and is the focus of this new book.
