About this book

This fully revised 4th edition brings a fresh approach to the fundamentals of mass media and communication law in an engaging and accessible way, keeping legal jargon to a minimum and highlighting real-life examples of legal conflicts.

Designed for students of communication that are new to law, this volume presents key principles and emphasizes the impact of timely, landmark cases on today's media world. Providing an applied learning experience, this new edition offers expanded coverage of telecommunications, digital media law, and social media. It presents discussions of contemporary political, social, and cultural issues such as artificial intelligence, surveillance, cybersecurity, revenge porn, deepfakes, and disinformation campaigns. To encourage critical thinking, chapters include "From the Trenches" vignettes written by practitioners, "Global View" pieces comparing U.S. status to that in other countries, and "Ethical Dilemmas" ideal for class discussion.

Communication Law serves as a core textbook for undergraduate courses in communication and mass media law.
