Designing a comparative media-law module: freedom of expression and online-harm

[JonathanT]

I'm a university lecturer designing a new module on media law, and I'm struggling to frame a balanced discussion on the legal limits of freedom of expression, particularly regarding online speech that incites violence or spreads harmful disinformation. The challenge is presenting case law from different jurisdictions without the debate devolving into partisan arguments. For other academics or legal professionals, how do you effectively teach the tension between protecting fundamental rights and preventing tangible harm in the digital age? What are the most compelling comparative examples from different legal systems, and how do you address student pushback when discussing controversial rulings that seem to prioritize one principle over another? I want to foster critical thinking, not advocacy.
