The Equal Time And Fairness Doctrines: Outdated Or Crucial To American Politics In The 1980s, Howard Downs, Karen Karpen
The Equal Time And Fairness Doctrines: Outdated Or Crucial To American Politics In The 1980s, Howard Downs, Karen Karpen
UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
The Federal Communications Commission recently voted to urge congressional repeal of the equal opportunities and fairness doctrines. This article evaluates the arguments favoring repeal in light of the probable impact of the media on the political process in the 1980's. Instead of repeal of the doctrines, the authors advocate adoption of a "proportional time law," which would enable broadcasters to concentrate coverage on major political candidates, but also ensure some coverage of minor candidates.
The First Amendment And The Cable Television Operator: An Unprotective Shield Against Public Access Requirements, Michael I. Meyerson
The First Amendment And The Cable Television Operator: An Unprotective Shield Against Public Access Requirements, Michael I. Meyerson
UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
This article focuses on the question of whether state-imposed public access requirements violate the First Amendment rights of the cable television operator. The author rejects a traditional approach to this issue and suggests that the appropriate analysis asks whether the law abridges expression the First Amendment was meant to protect. That is, do cable access requirements abridge speech safeguarded by the First Amendment? The article demonstrates that such requirements do not hinder, but in fact further, fundamental First Amendment interests. Finally, the article shows that access requirements fulfill the standards of the constitutional tests for each classification into which they …
Child Pornography, The First Amendment, And The Media: The Constitutionality Of Super-Obscenity Laws, James W. Moore
Child Pornography, The First Amendment, And The Media: The Constitutionality Of Super-Obscenity Laws, James W. Moore
UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
Child pornography statutes have been passed by Congress and most of the states. This note examines one such law, New York section 263.15, which has been declared unconstitutional by the New York Court of Appeals. The author contends that the law impinges on freedom of expression in ways unnecessary to achieve its purpose and should be declared unconstitutional.
Pirates Walk The Plank: The Unauthorized Interception Of Pay Telelvision Transmissions, John H. Works Jr.
Pirates Walk The Plank: The Unauthorized Interception Of Pay Telelvision Transmissions, John H. Works Jr.
UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
The purpose of this note is to discuss the unauthorized interception of subscription television transmissions and to explain how the Federal Communications Commission and the courts finally arrived at the conclusion that television piracy is illegal activity. Until recently, there has been very little litigation on this question, and the remedies available to the subscription television services. Subscription television companies have attempted to protect their signals either by scrambling them or by transmitting them over microwave frequencies. Pirates have sold equipment capable of either decoding scrambled signals or receiving microwave transmission. The author makes several recommendations on how the unauthorized …

Literature And Libel, Marc A. Franklin, Robert Trager
UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
This article explores cases in which publications that purport to be fiction have led to claims of defamation. It begins with an analysis of the common law, which shows the central importance of proving that the defamation was "of and concerning" the plaintiff. Next, the article considers the impact of recent constitutional developments in the area of nonfiction defamation. The authors argue that fiction is entitled to no more and no less constitutional protection than nonfiction publications. They thus reject absolute privilege on the one hand and strict liability on the other. Then then develop analogies to the Times-Gertz privilege …
The Regulatory Status Of Cable Television Leased Channels: Issues Of Common Carriage And Preemption, Nicholas P. Miller, W. Randolph Young, Robert H. Ruxin
The Regulatory Status Of Cable Television Leased Channels: Issues Of Common Carriage And Preemption, Nicholas P. Miller, W. Randolph Young, Robert H. Ruxin
UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
As cable television develops into a communications medium capable of providing a vast array of voice, data and television communications services, there is an increasing interest by local governments in requiring the cable operator to provide access to the cable system through leased channels. The article examines cable leased channels in terms of common carriage and the possible jurisdictional questions raised between the federal, state and local governments. Leased channel requirements can be implemented in such a way so as to impose a common carrier classification of not. Although common carrier obligations for leased channel services may be publicly beneficial, …
After Richmond Newspapers: A Public Right To Attend Civil Trials, Doug Gummerman
After Richmond Newspapers: A Public Right To Attend Civil Trials, Doug Gummerman
UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
In Richmond Newspapers, Inc. v. Virginia, the United States Supreme Court ruled that the public and press have a First Amendment right of access to criminal trials. The 1980 decision left many questions unanswered, however. Among them is whether the public's right to attend will someday be extended to include civil trials. This note analyzes the Richmond decision, examines the history of the public civil trial, and arrives at an answer to this question. The currently-recognized exceptions to the open civil trial are then examined, with particular attention paid to the various state statutes which authorize trial closure in certain …
The Fairness Doctrine: Fair To Whom, Loretta T. Menkes
The Fairness Doctrine: Fair To Whom, Loretta T. Menkes
Cleveland State Law Review
This Note contends that the fairness doctrine, as presently applied, fails to meet its legislative purpose and violates constitutionally protected rights. This Note will examine the standards and policies established by the FCC as judicially approved in Red Lion Broadcasting, Inc. v. FCC and American Sec. Council Educ. Foundation v. FCC. Practical application of these standards and policies will be explored in three categories: 1) controversial issue programming; 2) commercial advertisements; and 3) political messages. Finally, a solution to the arbitrary and discriminatory application of this amorphous doctrine will be suggested.

The First Amendment And The Cable Television Operator: An Unprotective Shield Against Public Access Requirements, Michael I. Meyerson
All Faculty Scholarship
This article focuses on the question of whether state-imposed public access requirements violate the First Amendment rights of the cable television operator. The author suggests that the appropriate analysis asks whether the law abridges expression the First Amendment was meant to protect. In other words, do cable access requirements abridge speech safeguarded by the First Amendment? The article demonstrates that such requirements do not hinder, but in fact further, fundamental First Amendment interests. Finally, the article shows that access requirements fulfill the standards of the constitutional tests for each classification into which they could be placed.

The Involuntary Public Figure Class Of Gertz V. Robert Welch: Dead Or Merely Dormant?, Dale K. Nichols
The Involuntary Public Figure Class Of Gertz V. Robert Welch: Dead Or Merely Dormant?, Dale K. Nichols
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This article does not resolve the debate over involuntary public figures but argues instead that in light of the Court's pronouncements in Firestone, Hutchinson and Walston, the involuntary class should be abolished. Part I briefly traces the evolution and significance of public figure status in defamation law, and reviews various interpretations of the involuntary public figure references in Gertz. Part II examines the status of the involuntary class after Firestone, Hutchinson and Walston, and discusses the extent to which future use of the class remains logically consistent with those decisions. Finally, the article considers the merits of …
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.
