- 8. Legal and Ethical Issues Copyright Knowing copyright laws are crucial when creating any media product, you must follow the copyright, designs, and patents act 1988. If I would like to include someone's else's work like for example a photograph I would have to get the exclusive legal right to publish it in my magazine by asking the owners permission. Sometimes in order to get the rights to use the photos a payment is required so I would have to think about this when creating my budget. If I don't get the rights the impacts of breaching copyright laws could be that have to provide a monetary damages payment, all of the profits made off that issue could go to the creator and I may be banned from using their work. Ipso is the Independent press standard organisation and is the regulator for the UKs magazines and newspaper industry. They hold newspapers and magazines to account for their actions, protect individual rights, uphold high standards of journalism and help to maintain freedom of expression for the press.. They also, among other things, make sure that member newspapers an magazines follow the Editors' Code ,investigate serious standards failings and can fine publishers up to 贈1 million and can settle legal disputes. To help IPSO keep track of all magazines standards they ask every company to submit a annual statement about how they have adhered the editors code , this is something I will do when I create my magazine. They also offer many other services like Anti-harassment hotlines, and hotlines for journalists who are pressured by they superiors to not follow the editors code. Ethical I will have to ensure that the content I include in my magazine isn't controversial in any way and is appropriate for my target audience. For example themes like my political beliefs or anything that could be prejudiced to a certain group of people e.g. racism, sexism, homophobia ect.
- 9. Risks A risk when creating a magazine is over spending on employees , advertisement ect. This can be very damaging to the production of the magazine as it will mean after selling the product. This could mean the company could go bankrupt. This can effect the overall standard of the magazine as certain cuts would have to be made so the quality would dip. Another risk when producing a magazine is it not appealing to the target audience. This is a problem as it means changing the overall vibe of the magazine and adapting it to fit the target audience which could mean changing the colour scheme , the sections in the magazine, who is in it (celebrities) ect . This will take a lot of time as it essentially means going back to square one. Being copyrighted is another risk when creating a magazine as if I don't check the images I use are free of copyright or ask the owner to use them then I will be copyrighted. This will mean paying a fee which can contribute to becoming bankrupt as it is an expense on top of what I will already be paying.
