Michael Doherty, in his work on judicial discretion, highlights three key frameworks for evaluating the admissibility of evidence: reliability, bad faith, and the protective principle. These frameworks provide a lens through which courts can assess the legality and fairness of police conduct in obtaining evidence.

Reliability Principle

The reliability principle centers on the methods used by law enforcement to obtain evidence. Doherty argues that if the method employed could potentially compromise the reliability of the evidence, then that evidence should be excluded. This principle aligns with the views of Ormerod & Birch, who suggest that courts are more inclined to exclude evidence when its reliability is called into question.

Media coverage not only directs what we think but also shapes how we think. This influence provides media with a powerful tool to influence government and the way people view it. The idea that what the public thinks about is set by the media. The agenda setting theory was first introduced by Dr. Maxwell McCombs and Dr. Donald Shaw in 1972. This theory states that the news plays an integral part in the shaping of political realities. The amount of time spent on an issue and the information relayed in a news story, along with the story's position, determines how much a reader learns and the amount of importance placed on the issue.
