Edited by Dr. Vartika Nanda, this book was published in 2018 by Kanishka Publishers. The book comprises twelve chapters that provide an in-depth knowledge of the concepts and issues surrounding laws and ethics in journalism. Fourteen academicians, journalists and media educators have contributed to this insightful piece of work to provide a better understanding of some of the important ethical concerns and legislative structures circling the media. The book explores in detail the concepts like paid news, relentless misuse of social media and media trials, that run parallel to the trials by the court. It, moreover, makes the students of journalism and media professionals  aware of their legal and social responsibilities alongside exploring crucial  topics  of public interest like media laws and the provisions in the Constitution of India pertaining to media, in detail.

 

IMPORTANCE IN THE CURRICULUM OF JOURNALISM

 

Media laws and ethics is an integral part of media studies in semester III, in the course of BA (Hons) Journalism in the University of Delhi. This book has also been suggested as a reading in the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC). It is studied as a part of the syllabus in several other universities that offer the course in journalism and media studies. Study of journalism is rather incomplete without the study of the laws, rules and ethics encircling media. This book serves as an important source of information for the students when they prepare for their exams. Students often refer to it as a resource to conduct detailed research on various topics under the curriculum of Media Laws and Ethics. It also serves as an academically acclaimed piece of work that facilitates the journalistic skills of the students as they prepare to work in the professional sphere.

FOREWORD BY K. G. SURESH Professionalism is fine but does it justify a missionary turning into a mercenary? asks K.G. Suresh, the Director General of the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (now Vice Chancellor of Makhan Lal Chaturvedi University, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh), while writing the foreword for this book. He traces the onset of journalism in India as a noble profession and talks critically of the practices of paid news, advertorials and private treaties that often hinder the ethical practice of journalism today. While writing about the freedom of speech and expression in journalistic terms, K. G. Suresh says, Freedom has been turned into a license. Legitimate questions are being labeled as blatant violation of a freedom sans reasonable restrictions or accountability. He raises necessary questions about some of the very prevalent practices in Indian journalism that are weakening its roots, like that of fake news, aggressive reporting and the lack of sober and soft-spoken language in the domain of news reporting.

FOREWORD BY DR. VARTIKA NANDA

Dr. Vartika Nanda has explained the impact and intensity of media trials through one of the very prominent case studies, namely, that of the ‘Aarushi Talwar murder case’. This case rose to fame because of the relentless trails run by the media parallel to the trial by the court. Dr. Vartika Nanda interviewed Nupur Talwar in the jail in October 2015. This interview was released in October 2017, and was the first and the last interview recorded inside the jail.

Amidst the debate of who killed Aarushi, one question neglected all along was: how would Talwar couple eventually get themselves accepted in the society. Stating this, she raises a very prominent concern about how media trials permanently tarnish the reputation of the parties involved, with  irresponsible reporting based on no legal or legislative understanding of a particular case. She also calls attention to the prevalence of sensationalism in journalism through this book. Talking about sensationalism, she mentions that the  players change, but the elements of drama, tamasha and entertainment remain.  

CHAPTERS

Opening chapter of this book dwells deep into the subject of media ownership and covers topics of paid news and private treaties. In this chapter, Keval J. Kumar talks about the new media as a public sphere. He describes how new media transforms into the Fourth Estate and depends on other ‘societies’ to be viable or profitable.  In the second chapter, Professor Archana R. Singh explains  the concept of live reporting of news along with its historical background and scope in future. Third chapter studies the constitutional, legal and ethical aspects pertaining to media trials by television channels. It has been penned down by Dr. Susmita Bala. Ethical standards of television news reporting and the role of News Broadcasting Association (NBA) have been researched upon thoroughly in chapter four of this book. This chapter has been written by Hemant Kaushik,  a television journalist.

In this series, the chapter on legality and ethicality of sting operations and phone tapping, describes how the practice is considered as ‘journalistic dark acts’. Charu Chandra Pathak, who is a media educator and an independent documentary filmmaker has put this chapter in black and white. The sixth chapter written by Dr. Ambrish Saxena, and the seventh chapter written by Dr. Arvind Kumar, deals with the constitutional and legal aspects of commercial speech and advertising, respectively.

Right To Information (RTI) has been talked about by Albert Abraham, in respect to media and ethical perspectives in chapter eight of this book. The next chapter has been written by Nawal Kishor on the social responsibility circling the use of social media, followed by a chapter consisting of a detailed study of self regulation in context of new media, which has been put in writing by Dr. Amit Nagpal. The eleventh chapter dives further deep in the study of social media and the practice of freedom of expression as well as its legal and ethical parameters. It has been written by Dr. Rachna Sharma. Chapter twelve is about intellectual property rights. This chapter has been written by Dr. Archana where she draws the lines of the history of the Intellectual Property Rights in India. She highlights that the laws were there but were not enough to protect the intellectual property rights of the people because the government and the people had not thought to protect their ancient knowledge by any specific law. 

STUDENT ENGAGEMENT 

These twelve chapters are succeeded by a critical analysis and research on case studies pertaining to media laws and ethics. Students have contributed to this book in a sizable amount. Six students from the Department of Journalism, Lady Shri Ram College, have worked on the glossary, and the compilation of case studies elaborated upon in this book. Students who worked on the book, from the batch of 2018, are Aayushi Agarwal, Rahel Philipose, Maitrayee Misra, Akanksha Kalyan, Vaishnavi Kanugula and Saloni Singla. Dr. Vartika Nanda duly guided them and their perspectives were taken into consideration to write this book. They got the exposure of working professionally in the field of writing and research while undertaking this project.  This further helped some of them get jobs and career progression. The book was also discussed during the NAAC visit to LSR in 2022. 

IMPACT OF THE BOOK

 

To quote Albert Abraham from the book itself, “Information is regarded as the oxygen of democracy. It invigorates where it percolates.” This book makes the readers aware of and allows them to gain a critical understanding of some of their important fundamental rights and duties, like the Right to Information. Media personnels, of all people, must uphold the constitutional values as they are the face of a nation and the fourth pillar of democracy. Unethical media practices have famously caused havoc in the past, and must be prevented in order to maintain peace and harmony in the society. This book has served as a go-to for the students of journalism all across universities. Students have left comments on the blog post about this book on Dr. Vartika Nanda’s blog (www,vartikananda.blogspot.com), mentioning how this book gave them insights and a better understanding of the curriculum of Media Laws and Ethics.

The information available on the internet about media laws and ethics serves as a slippery ground that can lead to spreading of misinformation amongst the students if not verified properly. This book provides a well-researched account on this subject. It  enlightens the students about media laws and ethics and provides them perspective about media and the laws surrounding it. It teaches ethical journalism to the students and alongside caters to their syllabus. This book is an umbrella that undercovers some of the most insightful and thorough research papers on the subject of media rules, ethics and laws. It trains the journalists to be ethical journalists and prevents them from encouraging and participating in some of the heinous malpractices that haunt the field of journalism today.

ज़ीरो माइल अलीगढ़

“इस किताब में जयसिंह ने बड़ी ईमानदारी और निश्छलता के साथ अपने जीवन के पन्नों को खोला है। उनके अपने प्रसंग एक व्यक्ति और शहर के संबंधों की बारीकी को खोलते हैं। इसलिए यह किताब महज एक शहर का वृत्तांत भर नहीं रह गई है। यह एक मध्यवर्गीय व्यक्ति के जीवन संघर्ष की भी कहानी है, जिसका साक्षी है वह शहर, जिससे उस व्यक्ति का सुख-दुख जुड़ा हुआ है।”

 – संजय कुंदन, संपादक, वाम प्रकाशन

अलीगढ़ तालों का शहर है। अलीगढ़ तालीम और तहज़ीब का शहर है। यह सैयद अहमद खान, प्रो.इरफान हबीब, गोपालदास नीरज, इस्मत चुग़ताई, कुर्रतुल-ऐन-हैदर, शहरयार, मैत्रेयी पुष्पा, भारत भूषण और रवीन्द्र जैन का शहर है। चर्चित लेखक-पत्रकार जयसिंह की आंखों से देखिए पुराने और नये शहर को। पता चलेगा एक शहर का बदलना दरअसल हमारे रहन-सहन और सोच का बदलना है, कई मूल्यों का बदल जाना है। इसमें लेखक ने अपने जीवन के कई अध्याय खोले हैं, जिनके हरेक पृष्ठ से अलीगढ़ झांकता है। यह किताब आपको अलीगढ़ की यात्रा पर ले जाती है। इससे गुज़रते हुए मोहल्ले, सड़कें, बाज़ार, स्कूल-कॉलेज, धर्मस्थल, सिनेमा हॉल, खानपान के अड्डे हमारे सामने एक-एक कर आते हैं। हम ताला उद्योग में दाख़िल होते हैं और हमें उसका भीतरी संसार दिखाई देता है। किताब हमें अलीगढ़ मुस्लिम यूनिवर्सिटी के कैंपस में लेकर जाती है और हम उसे एक नई रोशनी में देखते हैं। फिर वह हमारी मुलाक़ात कला-साहित्य, इतिहास और पत्रकारिता की नामचीन शख़्सियतों से कराती है। किताब में केवल शहर की चमक-दमक नहीं है, दंगों के इतिहास की पड़ताल करते हुए लोगों के मन के अंधेरे कोनों की भी टोह लेने की कोशिश की गई है। यह न तो शहर का इतिहास है, न संस्मरण, न ही समाजशास्त्रीय विवेचन, लेकिन इसमें इन तीनों की ताक़त और रोचकता समाहित है।

जयसिंह फिल्म-समीक्षक और स्तंभकार हैं। उनकी दो किताबें प्रकाशित हैंः भारतीय सिनेमा का सफरनामा और सिनेमा बीच बाजार। यह तीसरी किताब है। उन्होंने विभिन्न विषयों की सौ से अधिक पुस्तकों का संपादन किया है और एक लघु फिल्म का निर्माण और निर्देशन भी। वह भारतीय सूचना सेवा से संबद्ध हैं और ‘रोज़गार समाचार’ में बतौर संपादक कार्यरत हैं।
