DESCRIPTION:Tabloid journalism in the United Kingdom has generated much co
 ntroversy when it comes to privacy protection. One need only point to the 
 Leveson Inquiry to illustrate the propensity of UK tabloids to intrude upo
 n the privacy of public figures and celebrities\, along with ordinary indi
 viduals thrown into the public eye through tragedy\, and the collective ou
 trage this has caused. In the wake of the Leveson Report we have seen a fu
 ss about press regulation and an unsatisfactory implementation of the Leve
 son recommendations. This talk will reflect on the journey that privacy pr
 otection has taken in the United Kingdom over the past fifteen years since
  the House of Lords decision in Campbell v MGN and last year's Supreme Cou
 rt decision in PJS v NGN.
