Between the Tiger and the Crocodile: Broadcast Media Self-Regulation in Southeast Asia tackles the problems faced by an industry caught between the claws of state censorship and jaws of commercialism.

By taking public interest and needs more into account, they propose that broadcast news media may be ready for self-regulation.
