The Citizen Media Law Project takes a good look at a new bill to extend protections of New York’s ‘robust media shield law’ to bloggers.
“As anyone who’s been faithfully reading the CMLP blog knows, the law hasn’t been particularly good at dealing with the intersection of media shield laws and bloggers,” Arthur Bright comments.
“That makes the efforts of a couple New York legislators to proactively address the problem a most welcome change,” he says.
