The MLSA Legal Unit has published the "Legal Handbook for Journalists," which details the legal rights of journalists, particularly during news coverage. The guide addresses the practical issues journalists face and offers practical solutions for these problems.
The handbook aims to be a reference resource for journalists facing interventions in their freedom of expression.
The guide also includes case law from the European Court of Human Rights and the Turkish Constitutional Court concerning journalists' rights and freedoms. It covers emerging legal concepts such as those related to online news sites.
