Resumen de Court of Justice of the European Union: : New Media Online v. Bundeskommunikationssenat
On 21 October 2015, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) delivered its judgment in New Media Online v. Bundeskommunikationssenat, which was a preliminary reference from an Austrian court, asking whether a newspaper’s website containing video is covered by the EU’s Audiovisual Media Service Directive. The Court disagreed with Advocate General Szpunar’s recent opinion in July 2015, which had held that neither a newspaper’s website with audiovisual material, nor any section of such a website, is an “audiovisual media service” under the Directive (see IRIS 2015-8/3)
