Info

Marie McGonagle is a Law Lecturer at NUI Galway (homepage), specialising in Media Law. She was involved in the reformation process for the new Defamation Act, 2009.

David Dolphin spoke with Marie about the new Act in light of online communities and bloggers. We asked if the new law would give the Garda wider search and seizure powers for those found guilty of Blasphemy. We posed the question, “Is a blog a periodical?”

An excerpt of this interview aired on Wednesday January 27th on FlirtFM ITFreely, S2E7.
