Cable, Copyright, Communications: Controversy, Lee Fisher, Sam Salah

Cleveland State Law Review

This Note will examine the efforts of the courts, the legislature, and the Federal Communications Com-mission (FCC) to apply the Copyright Act of 1909 to the technological developments of the twentieth century. It is submitted that the significance of Teleprompter lies not in the Court's determination that there was no copyright infringement -for that finding will soon be negated by upcoming copyright law revision -but in the inability of the Court to discard past inflexible and unrealistic approaches to the 1909 Copyright Act. Offered is a different method of viewing cable communications in terms of the Copyright Act, which recognizes …

Product Liability: The Potential Liability Of The Advertising Agency, Stephen J. Werber, William L. Trombetta

Cleveland State Law Review

In the typical products liability action, there is generally a solvent manufacturer or seller from whom the injured party may recover. One could speculate that this is the major reason why no agency has ever been joined -but should not the agency be called to account where there is no other solvent defendant, or where other reasons prevent an effective action against the principals, or where justice demands a proper sharing of liability? The authors believe that this must be answered affirmatively, and that the potential for advertising agency liability does in fact exist.

The Constitutional Considerations Of Multiple Media Ownership Regulation By The Federal Communications Commission, Jon L. Mills, John Moynahan, Richard Perlini, George Mcclure

UF Law Faculty Publications

Promoting the dissemination of diverse ideas with a minimum of governmental interference is the goal of the first amendment in protecting free press and free media. This goal is implicit in the public interest mandate of the Communications Act of 1934. A precise balance between restraint and diversity in first amendment policy appears impossible, but the process of decision should reflect both, with deference to restraint where possible. The Federal Communication Commission's Order in Docket 18110 failed to strike such a balance; any future action regarding cross-ownership of broadcast stations by newspapers would benefit by an increased recognition of the …

Reletting The Abandoned Or Defaulted Public Works Project In New York- To Bid Or Not To Bid?, Bruce J. Bergman

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The general requirement that contracts for public works be let pursuant to advertisements for bids to the lowest responsible bidder has long been the law in New York and other jurisdictions. After determining that the mandatory statutory pronouncements apply to a particular contract, there is an entire "second level" problem of the propriety of bids and the awarding of the contract pursuant thereto. Suppose a contractor has defaulted or abandoned a valid public works contract. Must the public entity now readvertise for bids for the completion of the work? The answer in most instances is "no," and this raises the …

Deceptive Practices In The Marketplace: Consumer Protection By New York Government Agencies, William F. Mulroney

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The past several years have witnessed considerable growth in the power and number of New York governmental consumer protection agencies. New and potent statutory powers have been granted to the Attorney General. At the local level, cities, counties, and towns have created consumer agencies and granted many of them enforcement and rulemaking powers. Legislation on all levels of state government regulates an increasing number of commercial activities for the protection of consumers. That legislation has likewise led to greater cooperation among state and local consumer agencies. This Comment will examine the structures and powers of the various New York State …

Television And Radio Commentators' Freedom Of Speech Not Infringed By Dues Requirement Of Union Shop Agreement. Buckley V. American Federation Of Television And Radio Artists, 496 F.2d 305 (2d Cir.), Cert. Denied, 95 S. Ct. 688 (1974)., Edwin M. Ceccarelli

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Plaintiffs, prominent television and radio commentators, were compelled to pay union dues and join the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA) as a condition precedent to their public broadcasts. Plaintiffs sought declaratory and injunctive relief, alleging that this union shop requirement had a "chilling effect" upon the exercise of free speech and thus violated the first amendment. The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled in plaintiffs' favor and declared that any provisions requiring plaintiffs to become members of AFTRA, pay dues, and comply with any regulations incident thereto were void and of …

A Reply To Professor Craver: Physicians In Private Practice Already Have Enough Power, Stanton A. Glantz

UC Law Journal

In the previous issue of this Journal, Professor Craver argued that both the power of the health insurance industry and the burden of government medical programs which require peer review justify antitrust immunity for physicians who unionize. In reply, Dr. Glantz argues that doctors, because of their unique position, have power not held by ordinary workers and that the burdens which Professor Craver cites are not so great that physicians should be given even greater power in the form of antitrust immunity.

Criminal Law- Reckless Endangerment And Coercion- Union Officials May Be Liable To Criminal Prosecution In Strike Of Essential Public Employees. People V. Vizzini, 78 Misc. 2d 1040, 359 N.Y.S.2d 143 (Sup. Ct. 1974)., James Clark Quinn

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Defendants, officers of the Uniformed Firefighters Association (UFA), were charged with reckless endangerment in the second degree, attempted coercion, reckless endangerment of property, and related crimes. The basis of these charges was the five and one-half hour New York City fireman's strike called by defendants despite express Taylor Law prohibitions against strikes by public employees. Defendants moved to dismiss the indictment on the grounds that a strike by firemen could not be the basis of a criminal prosecution, arguing that the Taylor Law provided the exclusive remedies and sanctions for public employee labor disputes. The New York Supreme Court denied …

The Limits Of Corporate Responsibility. By Neil W. Chamberlain. New York: Basic Books, Inc. 1973. Pp. 236. $10.00., Stephen A. Block

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This book is a chronicle of past and a prediction of future corporate survival through the furtherance of the consumerist philosophy. Professor Chamberlain discusses (although all too briefly) how corporations have inculcated in American society the materialism that is its principal motivating force and how that value, feeding on itself and thereby forging an alliance of mutual need between the corporate structure and the American people, has created the situation described in the above quotation. He also analyzes the impact of this philosophy on various aspects of corporate and noncorporate life, from the corporation's relationship with its employees to that …
