Permission

Approval Letter

This is important to obtain as there are Laws and regulations for using other people’s property that are not mine or the magazines, that’s why it is important for the owner to sign this contract so that they are fully aware that I am using his property.

Approval Letter from the Artist

It is important that the artist sign this permission letter as he/she will be part of a magazine that many people will know about their private life and whether they are willing to take that risk. Tune iN has to be fully aware to produce an accurate publication and not mislead the reader about being able to harm or discriminate the artist.

Press Complaints Commission (PCC)

Press Complaints Commission was the exiting legal and regulatory framework for British printed newspapers and magazine, which contains of

representatives of the major publishers. However, the PCC closed on Monday 8th September 2014,

and was replaced by the Independent Press Standards Organisation also known as IPSO.

What is the IPSO?IPSO is the independent regulator of the newspaper and magazine industry. IPSO promote and uphold the highest professional standards of journalism in the UK, and to support members of the public in seeking redress where they believe that the Editors' Code of Practice has been breached.

The Editor’s Code

From looking at the editors code of press complaints commission, there are standards that my magazine need to reach to be fair and not break any rules of publishing. The benchmark within the editor’s code is to never upset the public by publishing inappropriate content. It is also to publish fair and suitable content with in the magazine. Established in 2003, the Code of Practice states that:

• Accuracy – The press must take care not to publish inaccurate, misleading or distorted information, including pictures. A significant inaccuracy, misleading statement or distortion once recognised must be corrected, promptly and with due prominence, and – where appropriate – an apology published. A publication must report fairly and accurately the outcome of an action for defamation to which it has been a party, unless an agreed settlement states otherwise, or an agreed statement is published.

IPSO – Independent Press Standards Organisation

• Privacy – everyone is entitled respect for his or her private and family life, home, health and correspondence, including digital communications. Editors at Tune iN will be expected to justify intrusions into an individual’s private life with consent. It is unacceptable to photograph individuals in a private place without their consent, which I will remind the employees of and it will be clause in any employment contract.

• Harassment – journalists must not engage in intimidation, harassment or persistent pursuit. At Tune iN we must not persist in questioning, telephoning, pursuing or photographing individuals once asked to desist; nor remain on their property when asked to leave and must not follow them. Editors at Tune iN must ensure these principles are observed by those working for them and take care not to use non-complaint material from other sources.

• Children – a child under 16 must not be interviewed or photographed on issues involving their own or another child’s welfare unless a custodial parent or similarly responsible adult consents. Pupils must not be approached or photographed at school without the permission of the school authorities. Minors must not be paid for material involving children’s welfare, nor parents or guardians for material about their children or wards, unless it is clearly in the child’s interest. Tune iN will avoid interviewing anyone below this age to overcome this potential problem.

IPSO – Independent Press Standards Organisation

• Clandestine Devices & Subterfuge – the press must not

seek to obtain or publish material acquired by using

hidden cameras or clandestine listening devices; or by

intercepting private or mobile telephone calls, messages

or emails; or by the unauthorised removal of documents, or

photographs; or by accessing digitally-held private

information without consent.

• Discrimination – the press must avoid prejudicial or pejorative reference to an individual’s race, colour, religion, gender, sexual orientation or to any physical or mental illness or disability. Details of an individual’s race, colour, religion, sexual orientation, physical or mental illness or disability must be avoided unless genuinely relevant to the story.

• Financial Journalism – even where the law does not prohibit it, journalists must not use for their own profit financial information they receive in advance of its general publication, nor should they pass such information to others. They must not write about shares or securities in whose performance they know that they or their close families have a significant financial interest without disclosing the interest to the editor or financial editor. They must not buy or sell, either directly or through nominees or agents, shares or securities about which they have written recently or about which they intend to write in the near future.

IPSO – Independent Press Standards Organisation

Confidential sources – journalists have a moral obligation to protect confidential sources of information.

Example

Here is an example where the editor of Mojo Magazine is being accurate, not being misleading and not produced unfair information. The photo below illustrates that Mojo paraphrase the pull quote to be able to keep it interesting for the reader; also selected most of the words in bold to ‘signify’ the importance of the word itself.

IPSO – Independent Press Standards Organisation

IPSO – Independent Press Standards Organisation

When making an complaint through IPSO, there are three ways you can do this. They can either do this electronically by filling in an online form or sent an email. Lastly, write a letter.

The photo on the left demonstrates on what the online form looks like. Within the online form they asked the person what they are complaining about such as;

How to make a complaint through the IPSO

Press Complaints Commission Case Study (28th May 2015)

On 28th May 2015, the Press Complaints Commission ruled that Rod Liddle has been censured for crudely mocking a woman’s gender identity and her disability. Having a sustained complaint against the newspaper, IPSO required it to publish its ruling on the same page as Liddle’s column. It also appears today at the foot of his latest column and online.

This complains should be seen as a landmark decision as it is the first complaint IPSO has accepted from a representative group rather than an individual. Moreover, under IPSO’s rule it may consider such complaints if “an alleged breach of the editor’s code is significant” and there is a “substantial public interest” for doing so.

The complaint against Liddle was made by Trans Media Watch, which acted with the consent of Emily Brothers. It contended that items in Liddle’s columns on 11 December 2014 and 15 January 2015 discriminated against Brothers because of prejudicial and pejorative references to her disability and gender.

In the first instance, Liddle reported that Brothers was hoping to become Labour’s first blind transgendered MP by standing for election in Sutton and Cheam. “Being blind”, he wrote, “how did she know she was the wrong sex?”

When Trans Media Watch complained to the Sun about the remark, the paper accepted that it was tasteless but denied that it was prejudicial or pejorative. However, it did not accept that Liddle had criticised Brothers or suggested anything negative or stereotypical about her blindness or gender identity. Instead, it had been a clumsy attempt at humour.

In conclusion, this article portrays how serious the damage that Rod Liddle has done towards the victim which reflects on how the Press Complaints Commission will dealt with this impairment. Moreover, the fact that it was accepted from a representative group rather than an individual denotes how important the public’s reaction towards this Act.

Intellectual PropertyWhat is Intellectual Property?Intellectual property (IP) refers to creations of the mind, such as inventions; literary and artistic works; designs; and symbols, names and images used in commerce.Industrial propertyIndustrial property such as inventions, industrial designs, trademarks which is afforded protection under national and international intellectual property laws.CopyrightCopyright is a legal right created by the law of a country, that grants the creator of an original work exclusive rights to its use and distribution, usually for a limited time, with the intention of enabling the creator to receive compensation for their intellectual effort.

Before publishing Tune iN, I need to be aware of the laws and regulations such as the copyright law because this will help me to protect my content from people trying to copy it and use it for other purposes.

When advertising my magazine or any other products that I am going to conclude as part of advertising in my magazine, I need to be aware of defamation, privacy, and publicity issues. The reason behind this is because when publishing the interviews and gossip pages, the magazine needs to make sure that they do not break any privacy rules of the subjects life. As an editor I have to make sure the magazine will contain any information that is true to the word and no false accusations to gain more money.

To make sure my magazine does not break any copyright laws, my magazine will ask permission from the social network sites that will be on the front page to use the logos. I will do this by contacting them and asking them for the permission by explaining what the use would be. The word “copyright” and copyright symbol should then be followed by the date (the year the work was created) you r name and then the statement “all rights reserved” (as in the example below)

Copyright © 2015 Megan del Mar. All Rights Reserved.

Finally, when advertising within the magazine, the advertisers or magazine must have the permission of everyone within the advertisement involved to publish the advert. This could be the product or service label, a celebrity etc.

Intellectual Property

Safe Working PracticesThe HSE provides risk management and risk assessment. Every work place has to have a risk assessment in place on how to deal with potential risks and perform work tasks safely. It is important that every employee is aware of potential risks and how to deal with them if they do occur. Moreover, the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 will come handy as it is providing the health, safety and welfare of persons at work, for protecting others against risks to health or safety in connection with the activities of persons at work, for controlling the keeping and use and preventing the unlawful acquisition, possession and use of dangerous substances.

The way I will prevent potential risks at the workplace is creating a risk assessment where evaluating the potential risks that may be involved in a projected activity or undertaking. The purpose of creating a risk assessment is to enable the employer to take the measures necessary for the safety and health protection of workers.

These measures include:• prevention of occupational risks;• providing information to workers;• providing training to workers;• providing the organisation and means to implement the necessary measures.

Risk AssessmentHere is a sample of a risk assessment where I will be recording events that will be occurring at the workplace. The purpose of having a risk assessment at work is to enable the employer to take the measures necessary for the safety and health protection of workers.
