Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea: Crime Victims' Dilemma After Simon & Schuster, Inc. V. Members Of The New York Crime Victims Board, 112 S. Ct. 501 (1991), Michele C. Meske Oct 1992

Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea: Crime Victims' Dilemma After Simon & Schuster, Inc. V. Members Of The New York Crime Victims Board, 112 S. Ct. 501 (1991), Michele C. Meske

Washington Law Review

In Simon & Schuster, Inc. v. Members of the New York Crime Victims Board, the Supreme Court held that a statute, New York's "Son of Sam" law, that allowed crime victims to reach the proceeds of their victimizers' media reenactments of the criminals' wrongful acts violated the First Amendment. By invalidating the statute, the Supreme Court eliminated the only presently available means to prevent criminals from profiting from their crimes and exploiting their victims. This Comment examines the origins of this problem and proposes that courts use restitutions common law doctrines to prevent criminals who sell their stories from profiting …


Regulating Cable Television Rates: A Phantom First Amendment Problem, Matthew Jolly Oct 1992

Regulating Cable Television Rates: A Phantom First Amendment Problem, Matthew Jolly

Washington Law Review

Public concern over cable television's status as a monopoly has generated a movement to allow local franchising authorities to regulate cable service rates. Because the courts have yet to hear a First Amendment challenge to imposing rate regulation on a member of the media, the constitutionality of cable rate regulation is not settled. This Comment argues that the restriction on speech resulting from rate regulation is outweighed by the substantial government interest in preventing unfair monopoly pricing practices.

Modern Media And The First Amendment: Rediscovering Freedom Of The Press, Donald E. Lively Jul 1992

Modern Media And The First Amendment: Rediscovering Freedom Of The Press, Donald E. Lively

Washington Law Review

Freedom of the press, like other constitutional guarantees is not an absolute. Nor does it have the same meaning for all media. For more than a century after the constitution was framed and ratified, the press was coextensive with publishing. Over the course of the twentieth century, electronic media have emerged and extended the contours of the press. At the same time, however, liberty of the press has developed in idiosyncratic terms that have fostered a First Amendment hierarchy. While print media continue to be afforded maximum constitutional security, newer communications methodologies have been more susceptible to official management and …

Liberal Visions Of The Freedom Of The Press, Michael Gerhardt May 1992

Liberal Visions Of The Freedom Of The Press, Michael Gerhardt

Vanderbilt Law Review

Liberals have long regarded the First Amendment's freedom of the press guarantee as their special plaything.' For most of this century, liberals have dominated the scholarship and the doctrinal debate on the freedom of the press. They have often urged the federal courts to establish the press as "a fourth institution outside the Government as an additional check on the three official branches." Liberal judges have ensured virtual autonomy for the print media through the cumulative effect of their rulings to immunize the press from damages for the publication of falsehoods about public figures unless the publication was done knowingly, …

Confidentially Speaking: Protecting The Press From Liability For Broken Confidentiality Promises—Cohen V. Cowles Media Co., 111 S. Ct. 2513 (1991), Jeffrey A. Richards Apr 1992

Confidentially Speaking: Protecting The Press From Liability For Broken Confidentiality Promises—Cohen V. Cowles Media Co., 111 S. Ct. 2513 (1991), Jeffrey A. Richards

Washington Law Review

In Cohen v. Cowles Media Co., the Supreme Court held that the First Amendment does not bar suits against newspapers for breaches of confidentiality promises. By following its cases holding that the press is subject to neutral laws, the Court ignored its precedent mandating that state laws inhibiting publication violate the First Amendment absent a compelling state interest. This Note explores both lines of cases and concludes that application of a state law that inhibits publication is unconstitutional if its utility in effecting a legitimate state interest is outweighed by the public's interest in receiving the information. Therefore, courts should …


The War On Poverty: A Civilian Perspective, Edgar S. Cahn, Jean C. Cahn Mar 1992

The War On Poverty: A Civilian Perspective, Edgar S. Cahn, Jean C. Cahn

University of the District of Columbia Law Review

This article does two things: it articulates a vision and it lays out a specific blueprint. The core of the vision regards legal representation as "a form of enfranchisement, as an attempt to institutionalize the functions of dissent and criticism, and as a means of revitalizing the democratic process." This explains why the article triggered a movement that was perceived as going beyond the orthodox delivery of legal aid. While others legislate or purport to breath life into the democratic process, lawyers, in their unique role as advocates, discharge a constitutionally protected role. And in light of the retaliation to …
