Contempt: keeping free speech fair?

1 comment

Estimated reading time: 5 minutes

You don’t often get Joshua Rozenberg and Nick Davies on the same stage, but tonight they join Jonathan Kotler (US Attorney and USC Annenburg School of Journalism) and Mark Haslam (partner, BCL Burton Copeland) to discuss journalism and the courts.

Are our laws on contempt ‘chilling’ good investigative journalism? Or are they a vital protection against (usually tabloid) excesses?

Join us tonight at 6.30 in the New Theatre, East Building, Houghton Street, LSE – there will be warm white wine and peanuts afterwards.
