Title THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND THE RIGHTS OF OWNERS AND EDITORS OF THE MASS MEDIA
Summary Mass media freedom is frequently restricted at different levels. In this thesis I will examine the limitation of the editorial and journalists’ freedom of speech by the owners of Mass Media. For these purposes I will compare two jurisdictions: the United Kingdom and Russia. The first is a good example of mass media freedom and another one shows how apparent mass media freedom can result in total fiasco in practice. I will look at the legislative and self-regulatory instruments governing the relationship of owners vis-à-vis editors and editors vis-a-vis journalists. I will also illustrate my research with recent cases from the UK and Russia.
