In its Spring 2008 issue (Volume 38, Part 1), Hong Kong Law Journal reviews Hong Kong Media Law. Author Danny Gittings says, "This is an important book that goes a long way to filling a serious vacuum as far as the Hong Kong media is concerned. If it helps educate Hong Kong journalists and editors enough for them to feel more confident in publishing articles about even the most litigious subjects without fear of losing the resulting court case, the book will also play its part in protecting press freedom in Hong Kong."
