People have learnt that in today's day we can easily speak our mind so easily and for it to go worldwide easy in seconds. This is generally done by the use of social media, this is generally written content onto the web so this is known as libel, The difference between libel and slander is generally libel means permanent because it can do damage for good because it can be seen forever. However Slander is a spoken word which causes less permanent damage because people will begin to forget about it.
In terms of magazine I don't think there is many issues with slander as the interviews are then written down in to the magazine which means it can be filtered by the editing team to make sure non of the material that is going to be published can cause harm to the bands. This is because the main purpose of the magazine is not to gossip about bands but get information on the bands to gain them a bigger fan base.
In terms of Libel all the material will be approved by the bands before being published to make sure the content we are giving out is the right image the want people to get from them. This is because I know there is a terms of 'Free speech' however it can cause unnecessary harm to any of the bands by making them lose fans.
