- WORDS:

- DATE:
- 2010
- PRICE:
- 19.99 GBP
As one of the forerunners of music file sharing software, Napster was the first company to be challenged by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for violating music copyright laws. Despite citing the Audio Home Recording Act which “granted consumers the right to transfer digital music for personal, noncommercial use” Napster lost their case. Whether copyright laws have, and continue to be, actually broken is debated, as is the claim that such peer-to-peer services contribute to the decline of music sales.

S/L/266. Has press freedom been silenced by the use of the super-injunction?
- WORDS:
- 8200
- DATE:
- 2010
- PRICE:
- 89.99 GBP
This legal paper examines the issue of press freedom and whether it has been restricted due to the emergence of a new form of super-injunction. The paper presents a critical analysis of the alternative area of law affected by such injunctions, by considering the Minton Report, numerous legal cases and their outcomes, and the principle of open justice – determining whether the super-injunction is necessary in a democratic society. The paper determines whether such instruments are being used to undermine investigative reporting and free speech. The paper indicates how some protection is provided in English law, allowing the media to challenge super-injunctions, especially in the light of the European Convention on Human Rights 1950 enforcing the provision of Article 10 (Freedom of expression) which was incorporated into the Human Rights Act of 1998. However, the paper highlights the continued unpredictability in this area, due to differing legal interpretations of the Act, which has ultimately created a tension between the law and the free press. A case list is also presented.
KEYWORDS: Press freedom, super-injunctions, investigative reporting, free speech, European Convention of Human Rights 1950, Human Rights Act 1998,

The media is an important cornerstone of democracy in the 21st Century, it facilitates debate, accountability in government and freedom of thought and expression of the individual. Turkey is a signatory to the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), which enshrines these rights, therefore in terms of convention Turkey seems to be promoting a free media. Yet the reality of the case of a free media in Turkey can be seen in the domestic law and courts, with Article 301 and the murder of Hrant Dink. This paper is going to consider the rights of the ECHR and what Turkey is meant to be protecting and compare it with the reality of the domestic courts to illustrate that the cornerstone of a free democracy is not present in Turkey. In fact Turkey is only playing lip service to the rights of a free media, by signing the ECHR, however the reality is that Turkey's derogations from these rights has made them void within Turkish law.
