Unique Content: Special Risks

We are sorry but this section of the legal guide is not yet complete.

Creating a legal guide for citizen media creators is a huge undertaking, so it is no surprise that we haven't been able to cover every topic.  This page collects some "special situations" that we think warrant additional discussion in the guide. If you have suggestions for additional subjects we should cover or would like to help us work on the guide, please let us know.

Some of the topics we hope to address in the future include:

  1. Employee Blogs
    1. Disclosure of Trade Secrets
    2. Disclosure of Financial Information
    3. Other Issues
  2. Covering Politics and Elections
    1. Photographs at Polling Places
    2. Covering Political Campaigns
    3. Seeking to Influence Elections
    4. Campaign Finance Law
  3. Political Websites
  4. Publishing Information For or About Children
    1. Juvenile Proceedings
    2. Child Online Protection Act
  5. Publishing Reviews of Restaurants, Services, People, Etc.
    1. Publishing Your Own Reviews
