Media law training and the Internet age

Journalism has changed a lot in the past decade, but media law courses in journalism school hardly at all, Ricardo Bilton writes: "Journalism schools rarely teach key digital legal topics such as net neutrality, encryption, the legal liability of retweets, and the 'right to be forgotten.' In a sense, media law courses at journalism schools are subject to the same problem that some journalism schools face as a whole: an institutional bias towards print and broadcast."
