reporting of news in a newspaper, magazine or similar periodical and a 
sufficient acknowledgement of the work is made; or

     (b) it is for the purpose of, or is associated with, the 
reporting of news by means of broadcasting or in a cinematograph film.

(2) The playing of a musical work in the course of reporting news by 
means of broadcasting or in a cinematograph film is not a fair dealing

the work for the purposes of this section if the playing of the work 
does not form part of the news being reported.

artistic work, or an adaptation of a literary, dramatic or musical 
work, is caused to be
transmitted to subscribers to a diffusion service in like manner as it
