: Slaw.caCopyright and Defamation Issues with Social Media and Politics
I gave a talk earlier today on the use of social media in politics, focusing on the Canadian scene, at the Miles S. Nadal Management Centre in the Ernst & Young Tower of the Toronto Dominion Centre.
Issues of copyright, including the use of YouTube, are discussed, as well as social media alternatives to defamation actions.
Audio of the talk available here until a Slide Cast can be set up.
