Current through the most recent Supreme Court term, MAJOR PRINCIPLES OF MEDIA LAW, 2016 delivers a comprehensive summary of the latest additions, changes, and developments in communication law. The text fully integrates recent developments through July 1 -- the end of the Court's 2014-15 term -- and is available in August for fall classes. Reflecting the authors' experience in the courtroom and classroom, the text focuses on the issues more important to media law, while student-friendly features help you truly engage with the material. "Focus On" sidebars explore key legal issues in more depth, end-of-chapter "What should I know about my state?" features highlight key issues from your home state, and in-margin definitions of glossary terms make even the most complex topics easy to understand.
