News and media can be useful sources of information on legal developments and their impact on society and populations. While academic journals offer in-depth legal analysis, newspapers and other media sources provide real-time perspectives and allow you to conduct preliminary legal research and gain an understanding of public discourse on legal issues.

It is important to critically evaluate information from news and media sources: consider the source's reputation, potential biases and the author's reputation before incorporating it into your legal analysis or argument, and verify any information presented against primary legal sources such as legislation and case law. You should also make sure that you use media sources alongside - not instead of - academic, peer-reviewed sources such as books and journal articles.
