Russia's Supreme Court discussed a draft of a document, to be adopted soon, containing a number of legally binding rulings relating to mass media law. In particular, the Court ruled that although web sites may be used for distributing "mass information," a web site as such is not a "mass medium" and accordingly is not governed by the relevant statute. The Court further ruled that a mass medium is not responsible for users' comments left online on its site (which was previously subject to heated debate).
