Taylor, Henry A. "British Concept of the Freedom of the Press." Gazette: International Journal for Mass Communications Studies, 11(2/3):123-38, 1965. T1
"Evolution of press freedom in Britain and recent activities of the General Council of the Press in assuring that abuses of freedom by the press do not lead to restrictive government legislation." The author traces the evolution of the concept of freedom of the press in England from the beginning of printing to 1861, when the present- day concept was established. "The state of continual alertness is natural and necessary because, in Britain, the freedom of the Press is not guaranteed, as it is in some countries, by inclusion in a written constitution. Nor is it established by any specific Act of Parliament." It is the result of four centuries' struggle in common law.
