The subject of this study is 'freedom within the press', the nature and limits of the protection afforded to the journalistic imparting process, which has been a neglected area of research. How are journalists to carry out the fiduciary duty of the press when the situation within the media is like an 'iron cage', reflected in the vast power asymmetry between the press as a corporate actor with immense power to shape public opinion and the Public Watchdog composed of individual journalists whose professional freedoms are wholly dependant on corporate contexts. The analysis draws strength from the classical defenders of freedom of speech, Milton and Mill, to show that at the dawn of the 21st century, an almost insurmountable obstacle is inherent in the intertwined alliance between big business and public authorities resulting in the widespread phenomena of self-censorship within the media. Instead of enlightening the public and inspiring the individual the press may be conducing to an inert public and individual cowardice antithetical to the objectives of human dignity and democracy.The core of the problem is that prima facie the infringement of freedom within the media is not exercised on legal premises and cannot therefore be solved within the legal framework. The operation of the press in society is conditioned by three types of regulation: legal regulation, market regulation and self-regulation. Legal regulation does not adequately presuppose the impact of the latter as it is based on the assumption that press freedom is mainly a negative liberty.The book explores the affirmative side of Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which is one of the most advanced forms of any kind of international legal processes, in guaranteeing press freedom that is not merely illusory but practical and effective so that the press can live up to its positive requirements.
