Legalized Sports Wagering In America, John T. Holden, Marc Edelman, Keith Miller

Cardozo Law Review

For twenty-five years, state legislative efforts to legalize, tax, and regulate sports wagering were forestalled by a federal law that disallowed new states from legalizing sports wagering. This freeze on new state-sponsored sports wagering ended abruptly on May 14, 2018, when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Murphy v. National Collegiate Athletic Ass'n that the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act violated the U.S. Constitution by impermissibly commandeering the states.

Since the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Murphy, there has been a rapid proliferation of legalized and regulated sports wagering throughout much of the United States. At present, thirty-five states …

Privatizing Copyright, Xiyin Tang

Michigan Law Review

Much has been written, and much is understood, about how and why digital platforms regulate free expression on the internet. Much less has been written— and even much less is understood—about how and why digital platforms regulate creative expression on the internet—expression that makes use of others’ copyrighted content. While § 512 of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act regulates user-generated content incorporating copyrighted works, just as § 230 of the Communications Decency Act regulates other user speech on the internet, it is, in fact, rarely used by the largest internet platforms—Facebook and YouTube. Instead, as this Article details, creative speech …

Built from nearly 100 interviews and hundreds of hours of observation, the book is filled with the voices of artists and vivid details of their plein air studios and interactions.

Lies,Damn Lies, And Kamikaze Lies: Protecting Falsehoods In The Name Of Truth, Doris Deltosto Brogan

Faculty Publications

Despite calls to reverse New York Times v. Sullivan and abandon the reckless disregard standard for public figure defamation cases--calls offered by two Supreme Court Justices, a number of legal scholars and some members of the popular press-- this article demonstrates that Sullivan’s protections have never been more relevant or more necessary, particularly in light of an epidemic of malicious, often strategic falsity, as well as overt assaults on the institutional press by powerful actors. We need Sullivan now more than ever. Further, for Sullivan to do its work effectively, it must be reinforced by two other legal protections: robust …

The Current State Of Student-Athlete Nil Rights: How Congress Should Respond To The Rapidly Changing Landscape Of Inter-Collegiate Sports, Kyle Aronson

Journal of the National Association of Administrative Law Judiciary

Collegiate student-athletes began signing sponsorship deals that compensate them for their name, image and likeness beginning in July 2021. Since its inception, the NCAA has prohibited student-athletes from receiving any outside monetary compensation to preserve traditional notions of amateurism. States have begun to pass legislation that allow for student-athlete compensation following recent decisions by the Supreme Court and Ninth Circuit suggesting that the NCAA’s historic practice may run afoul of antitrust law. This comment analyzes issues with the current state-by-state patchwork of laws that formulate the current landscape of collegiate sports. Finally, this comment will show why centralized, federal regulation …
