• Sommario/riassunto: Celebrities are routinely subjected to stalking, harassment, invasion of privacy, and defamation. These occurrences are often violations of their constitutional rights. In Outrageous Invasions: Celebrities' Private Lives, Media, and the Law, Professor Robin D. Barnes examines the role and nature of privacy in Western democracies. She documents the rise of the infotainment culture and its adverse affects on the dissemination of ideas. This is illustrated with analysis of recent controversies involving public media.
