LO2 - Legal and ethical issues

Legal issues

Law 1 - Obscene Publications Act 1959 and 1964
 The law makes it an offence to publish, whether for gain or not, any content whose effect will tend to "deprave and corrupt" those likely to read, see or hear the matter contained or embodied in it.

In my magazine I will not publish any content that is deemed obscene, such as promoting any extreme points of view or any innapropriate images so as not to violate the Obscene publications act.

Law 2 - The Defamation act 2013
 I will not publish any material that unfaily slanders any company or individual that will damage the companies/individuals reputation. This will ensure I do not break the Defamation act.

Law 3 - Copyright law
I will not publish anything that is legally owned by another company/individual without permission. so as not to break the copyright law.

Law 4 - Negligent Publication
The  author and/or the publisher under certain circumstances either individually or jointly, could be found liable for 'incitement' or 'negligent publication' if a reader of their publication is seriously injured, dies or suffers damage to their personal property after acting upon or using content contained in the publication.
