Two new reviews of Hong Kong Media Law have been published.
In an article "Hong Kong Media Law Explained," by Chris Dillon in the June/July 2008 issue of The Correspondent, a publication of the Foreign Correspondents Club Hong Kong, the book was lauded as "an accessible guide" that would be "particularly useful for correspondents who have recently arrived in Hong Kong or China and are trying to get their bearings." The review also said the book would be "of interest to non-journalists, whether they are citizens trying to understand the peculiarities of Hong Kong's copyright laws, public figures confronting the paparazzi or just people who are curious about the mechanics of Hong Kong's broadcast regulations."
In the July 2008 issue of Communications Lawyer of the American Bar Association, reviewer Kyu Ho Youm wrote that Hong Kong Media Law was "truly the first of its kind in the recent past" and was "a singularly important addition to the increasing body of country-specific media law books in Asia." Youm described the book as "valuable to working journalists and media lawyers" and cited the "scholarly merit" as "substantial."
