Abstract

The regulation of the British press is undergoing a major process of reform after the biggest scandal of phone hacking carried out by journalists from the tabloid News of the World broke in July 2011. This finding has uncovered a complex network of connections among the press, the police and politicians in the UK. After several months of investigation, the Leveson Inquiry into the culture, practices and ethics of the press has made numerous proposals in order for the press to be covered by a new independent self— regulatory regime leading to the ethical practice of journalism and guaranteeing the rights of persons who draw the attention of the media.
