Project: Research and Learn: Law and Digital Media You get to play journalist today. The topic of your story is one of the laws discussed in this lesson. You will select one of them to research. While researching, you will learn more about the law and will locate a case that went to court. Then you will write an unbiased article or broadcast describing the law and summarize the case and the stand of the parties involved. Be sure to review and abide by The Cannons of Journalism. Be sure to include:

a description of the law;
how the law relates to digital media;
one example of a case that went to court;
a discussion of the case and the parties involved; and
a summary of the outcome of the case.
Some helpful hints in finding a case are:

Search for “case law,” “court case examples,” and “case studies.”
Include the full name of the law and the acronym.
Discuss the impact these laws have on one or more media outlets in your community.
You will write your report as an article with at least 500 words that will be posted on an online news site or that a broadcast journalist will report on TV news.
