Journalist Bim Adewunmi and Simone Pennant of The TV Collective, a former TV producer, discuss whether the main channels need to change.

It suggests that publishers have editorial control over comments and should prevent clearly unlawful ones from appearing.

Law consultant David Banks looks at the laws and Justine Roberts, founder of Mumsnet, considers the implications.
