  • Privacyin Focus®
    PRIVACY IN FOCUS® Developments in Privacy and Information Security Law | May 2019 We’re happy to announce that the 2019 edition of Chambers USA: America’s Leading Lawyers for Business has recognized Wiley Rein’s Privacy, Cyber & Data Governance Practice as a nationwide leader. Chambers cites the great breadth and depth of the firm’s experience in matters that range from health care privacy to cybersecurity breaches to regulatory data governance requirements, and names Megan Brown as a Recognized Practitioner in the field. This issue reflects just some of the wide range of privacy, cybersecurity, and data governance issues that we handle, and that are top of mind for lawmakers, regulators, and industry. Our new partner Kevin Rupy provides insights on a high-profile topic on which he has testified before Congress: how to address illegal robocalls. On the Executive branch side, Megan Brown, Michael Diakiwski, and I discuss NIST’s request for information on standards for artificial intelligence (AI) – including those addressing privacy and data security – as it develops a federal plan for AI standards over the summer, and Moshe Broder discusses the new Executive Order on the government’s cybersecurity workforce. Lee Goodman analyzes social costs of political disclosure requirements and the First Amendment. And we include a Spotlight interview with partner Peter Hyun on his practice and congressional and state interest in privacy enforcement. As always, please reach out to any of us with questions, and let me know if you would like to see certain topics addressed in our newsletter. We had great interest in our recent privacy and cybersecurity webinars (now archived here) and our panel discussion on legislative and agency developments on privacy and cybersecurity, and there’s much more to come.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Murdoch's World the Last of the Old Media Empires by David Folkenflik Review: Murdoch’S World – the Last of the Old Media Empires
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Murdoch's World The Last of the Old Media Empires by David Folkenflik Review: Murdoch’s World – the last of the old media empires. David McKnight has previously written a book on Rupert Murdoch, "Rupert Murdoch: An Investigation of Power". Partners. UNSW provides funding as a member of The Conversation AU. The Conversation UK receives funding from these organisations. Email Twitter Facebook LinkedIn WhatsApp Messenger. The eruption of the News International phone hacking scandal has caused significant problems for Rupert Murdoch and his business empire. It forced him to close his big money spinner, News of the World, and to withdraw his takeover bid for the enormously profitable BSkyB satellite TV broadcaster. All of this has spawned a veritable tsunami of Murdoch books, including David Folkenflik’s Murdoch’s World. It’s a well written account of some of the most dramatic events surrounding Murdoch’s career and impact. Folkenflik argues the hacking scandal reflects a corporate culture at News, a culture in which there is a contempt for rules which govern the rest of us. In Britain this took the form of no-holds-barred journalism in which cops were bribed and the law systematically broken. In Australia this culture of contempt for rules translates into a disregard for any balance when reporting certain issues or in targeting Murdoch’s enemies du jour . All of this is a reflection of the group think which Murdoch sponsors among his editors and executives that they are rebels and enemies of the “establishment”. As Folkenflik says, this is a corporation which “has accumulated more influence than any other media company in the world and yet remains convinced of its status as an outsider”.

Calvert et al.: Fake News and the First Amendment: Reconciling a Disconnect Betwe FAKE NEWS AND THE FIRST AMENDMENT: RECONCILING A DISCONNECT BETWEEN THEORY AND DOCTRINE By Clay Calvert,* Stephanie McNeff,** Austin Vining,‡ & Sebastian Zarate‡‡ Abstract This Article analyzes calls for regulating so-called “fake news” through the lens of both traditional theories of free expression – namely, the marketplace of ideas and democratic self- governance – and two well-established First Amendment doctrines, strict scrutiny and underinclusivity. The Article argues there is, at first glance, a seeming disconnect between theory and doctrine when it comes to either censoring or safeguarding fake news. The Article contends, however, that a structural rights interpretation of the First Amendment offers a viable means of reconciling theory and doctrine.
