Copyright Ordinance 1962, fair dealing for reporting current eventssince 2 lines

Copyright Ordinance 1962, s. 57(1)(b) (fair dealing for reporting current events) · Read the law's page

  • You may deal fairly with a literary, dramatic, musical or artistic work for the purpose of reporting current events, in a newspaper, magazine or similar periodical, or by broadcast, in a cinematographic work, or by means of photographs, without infringing copyright (s. 57(1)(b)).
  • Do not assume the exception covers an online news aggregator's reproduction of headlines or snippets: the clause names no website, online publication or internet news service, and the question has not been tested.
