Abstract

The article outlines the issue of a journalist’s legal status in Ukraine. The emphasis is on the lack of a single document that would normalize rights and obligations of journalists. The availability of legislative documents regulating activity of particular media outlets results in numerous duplications of a journalist’s rights and obligations, this way complicating not only their implementation but also protection. Referring to obtained conclusions, a few ways for eliminating mentioned legal collisions are suggested.
Keywords: legal status journalist rights obligations responsibility mass media (media outlets)
