Defamation And The First Amendment: Protecting Speech On Public Issues, Bruce J. Borrus
Defamation And The First Amendment: Protecting Speech On Public Issues, Bruce J. Borrus
Washington Law Review
The common law of defamation collided with the United States Constitution in New York Times Co. v. Sullivan, and aftershocks from that collision have been rumbling for sixteen years. Ever since the New York Times Court asserted that the first and fourteenth amendments impose restraints on a state's power to afford a civil remedy for wrongful injury to reputation, the Supreme Court has been torn between its concern for personal reputation and its competing concern for free expression. The difficulty of resolving the conflict between these two concerns has forced the Court to decide a long line of cases …

Note: Richmond Newspapers, Inc. V. Virginia: A Demarcation Of Access, Dennis Scholl
Note: Richmond Newspapers, Inc. V. Virginia: A Demarcation Of Access, Dennis Scholl
University of Miami Law Review
Several months after this symposium, the Supreme Court announced its decision in Richmond Newspapers, Inc. v. Virginia, holding that the Constitution implicitly guarantees the right of the public to attend a criminal trial, which a court must keep open to the public, absent an express finding of an overriding interest. This note explores the numerous opinions in Richmond Newspapers to determine whether that case has expanded access rights since the recent decision in Gannett Co. v. DePasquale. The author reconciles the two decisions and concludes that the issues raised in the symposium remain vital.
The Right To Scrutinize Government: Toward A First Amendment Theory Of Accountability, Anthony Lewis
The Right To Scrutinize Government: Toward A First Amendment Theory Of Accountability, Anthony Lewis
University of Miami Law Review
The speaker eschews the view that the press enjoys a "preferred position" under the first amendment and aligns his beliefs with the view of Alexander Meiklejohn-an informed public is necessary for the success of a self-governing democracy. Mr. Lewis analyzes case law and concludes that the Court should cautiously "develop the principle of public accountability as a fundamental premise of the first amendment," guaranteeing a limited right of acquiring information to scrutinize government.
Press Rights And Government Power To Structure The Press, C. Edwin Baker
Press Rights And Government Power To Structure The Press, C. Edwin Baker
University of Miami Law Review
First, Professor Baker explores an instrumentalist argument for special press rights going beyond those protected by a liberty theory of freedom of speech. Then, in Part II, he examines the threats of -government power and private economic power to freedom of the "press" and considers the permissible extent of government intervention to structure the press or to protect it from private threats.
Commentary: The Limited Utility Of The First Amendment As A Means Of Securing Access By The Press And The Public To Proceedings In Criminal Cases, Edward L. Barrett Jr.
Commentary: The Limited Utility Of The First Amendment As A Means Of Securing Access By The Press And The Public To Proceedings In Criminal Cases, Edward L. Barrett Jr.
University of Miami Law Review
The author examines the models proposed in Gannett Co. v. DePasquale to provide constitutional protection of a public interest in access to judicial proceedings without impairing the interest of the defendant in a fair trial. Whether based on the first amendment or the sixth amendment, a constitutional approach requiring an immediate and delicate balancing of those interests by the trial court would be, in the author's view, unsatisfactory and unworkable. In the alternative, he suggests that legislative rather than judicial balancing may provide a more practical solution.

Conflicting Standards For Applying The Corporate Attorney-Client Privilege, Kay E. Stephenson
Conflicting Standards For Applying The Corporate Attorney-Client Privilege, Kay E. Stephenson
Vanderbilt Law Review
The attorney-client privilege protects confidential communications between client and attorney from forced disclosure.' Dating back to at least 1577, the privilege arose from the belief that it was a point of honor for the attorney to keep his client's confidences.'The modern rationale for the privilege, however, is the perceived need to encourage full and frank discussion between attorney and client by removing the fear of forced disclosure.' Thus, the privilege rests on the premise that the social benefits derived from uninhibited communication and from the attorney's access to all the facts outweigh the detrimental effects of concealing information during trial.' …
The Public Broadcasting Act: The Licensee Editorializing Ban And The First Amendment, John C. Grabow
The Public Broadcasting Act: The Licensee Editorializing Ban And The First Amendment, John C. Grabow
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This article contends that the public is deprived of an important source of information on public affairs issues as a result of the section 399(a) prohibition on editorializing. After an examination of the legislative history of Section 399(a), and the heritage of broadcast regulation in the United States, the article concludes that the prohibition on editorializing is an improper restriction on free expression in violation of the First Amendment.
Judicial Restrictions On Attorneys' Speech Concerning Pending Litigation: Reconciling The Rights To Fair Trial And Freedom Of Speech, Sally R. Weaver
Judicial Restrictions On Attorneys' Speech Concerning Pending Litigation: Reconciling The Rights To Fair Trial And Freedom Of Speech, Sally R. Weaver
Vanderbilt Law Review
The constitutionality of restraints on attorneys' speech has been considered by only two federal circuit courts: the Seventh Circuit, in Chicago Council of Lawyers v. Bauer,' and, more recently, the Fourth Circuit, in Hirschkop v. Snead.' Relying on many of the same precedents, the circuits nevertheless developed seemingly contrary standards. This Recent Development compares the analyses of these recent cases and suggests an appropriate standard for the accommodation of the conflicting rights of free speech and a fair trial.

Restrictions On Electric Utility Advertising, Michigan Law Review
Restrictions On Electric Utility Advertising, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
This Note reconsiders the constitutionality of New York's restriction on advertising by electric utilities. Section I explains how and why the Supreme Court's current analysis of the first amendment distinguishes commercial speech from other forms of speech. Section II looks at what protection is due commercial speech and weighs the competing interests in the specific context of utility advertising. The Note concludes that states may restrict utility advertising to encourage energy conservation.
