The book Open Court

This book, based on a PhD dissertation, aims to map the reciprocal relations between legal professionals and the media in Israel, and to examine the impact of the changes that occurred in the media on the press coverage of the courts and on legal decision-making and the legal process itself. It discusses for the first time the question of whether a process of mediatization in the legal system can be identified, as is claimed regarding the impact of the media on political institutions.. This book is based on in-depth interviews with 92 past and present lawyers, judges and journalists, on an analysis of 100 decisions handed down since the founding of the State of Israel that deal with the impact of the media on the legal process and on a comparative analysis of the media coverage of eight highly newsworthy criminal cases at different points of time in which the accused were public figures and judges.

gollark: Whatever you're proposing doesn't seem *simpler*.
gollark: Generally speaking, probably mathematical models, but the maths involved in quantum physics and whatnot is beyond my knowledge anyway.
gollark: Also that.
gollark: ... coherent explanations? Evidence?
