Did you know that teen journalists bear the same legal responsibility
for their work as any adult reporter or editor? And that although
minors are held to the same standards as other journalists, their
press freedom protections may be significantly limited depending
on the context in which their work appears?
You'll discover these and other
facts in The Starting Point: Young Journalists and the Law. Published
by the Newspaper Association of America® Foundation in partnership
with the Student Press Law Center, this unique 41-page guide addresses
the special legal and ethical issues involved when journalists are
minors and when journalists interview sources who are minors.
Inside the booklet is a review of
legal and ethical issues facing young journalists, along with related
exercises, suggestions and recommendations.
Newly revised, this publication
targeted toward adults who work with young people has been expanded
to include five chapters-libel, invasion of privacy, conflict with
authority, using the Internet and copyright law- each chapter includes
a case study and follow-up exercises, with questions and answers
suitable for use in classroom and training sessions.
