Set of rules or guidelines usually agreed between media organisations and public organisations in order to make media organisations more accountable for what they publish. Usually this is overseen by an independent regulatory body who may have the power to issue fines or warnings.
IPSO regulate news papers but it is voluntary, whereas social media sites have computerised regulators.
Who regulates music videos?
David Cameron announced new age ratings on music videos
The BBFC also monitor what is consumed...from certain record companies.
Should they?
Maybe because for young children it is a safe guard so they're not watching something inappropriate but in another sense there's not much point because children can find ways around it and see things they shouldn't anyway.
TV stations
- They have to have editorial standards which fall within Ofcom's code of conduct
- A government or court can place reporting restrictions on a case. So, for example, if a teenager is involved in a serious crime the court can order that his/her identity is not revealed
- Celebrity super-injunctions: Ryan Giggs case
User generated content: Where the content is created by the person not just a shared piece of reporting from a media organisation (TV/News)-or re-tweeted.
Light touch regulation: trying to prevent bad things from being shown, its advisory and voluntary
E.g, Sony music UK, Warner music UK, Universal music UK.
