Amateur Hour Is Over: Time For College Athletes To Clock In Under The Flsa, Nicholas C. Daly
Georgia State University Law Review
The debate surrounding the National Collegiate Athletic Association’s (NCAA) amateurism principles has waged for decades. The governing body of college athletics insists that the athletes who compete on a daily basis should not—or shall not—receive any compensation in exchange for their services while NCAA executives line their pockets with billions of dollars each year. This concept of “no pay for play” has drawn national criticism since the NCAA created the term “student-athlete” in the 1950s to combat a workers’ compensation claim. The amateurism principles were concocted as an attempt to prevent college athletes from being classified as employees of their …

The Evolution Of Data In Sports Betting And Its Legal Ramifications On The Privacy And Protections Of College Athletes, Bryan B. Fisher
Et Cetera
Have you ever placed a sports bet before? Did you win… or did you lose? Did it come down to the final seconds… or did you regret your decision before the game even reached halftime? At times, betting on a sports team can seem like a sure-fire win. Unfortunately, it can be nearly impossible to truly know a result before it happens, especially in the sports industry, where a simple bad bounce can alter the final score, effectively causing millions of dollars to change hands. But what if there was a way to know something about the game that others …

The Legal Nature Of The Professional Football Clubs In The United Arab Emirates, Ahmed Alzaabi
UAEU Law Journal
The sports and cultural clubs are considered economic public utilities in the United Arab Emirates Legal system. Since the presence in international sports events has become a popular demand and a governmental imperative, to keep pace with the political, social, economic and developmental successes experienced by the United Arab Emirates, the legislative branch published the legislative Decree number (7) of 2008 concerning the Public Authority for Youth and Sports Welfare and those working in it, that allowing the registered sports clubs to apply the professionalism system and to convert to commercial companies.

Fair Play: Notes On The Algorithmic Soccer Referee, Michael J. Madison

The soccer referee stands in for a judge. Soccer’s Video Assistant Referee (VAR) system stands in for algorithms that augment human deciders. Fair play stands in for justice. They are combined and set in a polycentric system of governance, with implications for designing, administering, and assessing human-machine combinations.

Collared—A Film Case Study About Insider Trading And Ethics, Garrick Apollon
St. Mary's Journal on Legal Malpractice & Ethics
This Article discusses the visual legal advocacy documentary film, Collared, by Garrick Apollon (author of this Article). Collared premiered in fall 2018 to a sold-out audience at the Hot Docs Cinema in Toronto for the Hot Docs for Continuing Professional Education edutainment initiative. Collared features the story and reveals the testimony of a convicted ex-insider trader who is still struggling with the tragic consequences of “the most prolonged insider trading scheme ever discovered by American and Canadian securities investigators.” The intimate insights shared by former lawyer and reformed white-collar criminal, Joseph Grmovsek, serves as a painful reminder of the …

Reorganizing In The Wake Of Mission Prod. Holdings V. Tempnology: How To Address The Trademark And Bankruptcy Law Issues Created By The Supreme Court’S Recent Decision, Kayla N. Ghasemi
Loyola of Los Angeles Entertainment Law Review
Bankruptcy law seeks to provide a “fresh start” for debtors and an equitable distribution of funds to creditors. Trademark law, on the other hand, aims to ensure proper source identification and protect the public from deception. These policies converge when a trademark owner or licensor has licensed use of the mark to others and hopes to reject this licensing agreement in bankruptcy. Prior to the Supreme Court’s decision in Mission Prod. Holdings v. Tempnology, LLC, there was a circuit split regarding the licensee’s rights upon the bankruptcy of and rejection by the licensor. Some circuits held that the licensee’s rights …

Influencers: Not So Fluent In Disclosure Compliance, Keith Coop
Loyola of Los Angeles Entertainment Law Review
The Fyre Festival is one of the most infamous disasters in music festival history. Lesser known to the public is that the influencers involved in Fyre Festival’s influencer marketing campaign were required to disclose their payments for endorsing the event. These types of disclosures are regulated by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) pursuant to its authority granted under the Federal Trade Commission Act (“FTC Act”). The disclosure requirement is set forth in the FTC’s Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (“Endorsement Guides”), which are nonbinding instructions that educate influencers on how to comply with Section 5 …

Twitter, Parody, And The First Amendment: A Contextual Approach To Twitter Parody Defamation, Emma Lux
Loyola of Los Angeles Entertainment Law Review
Twitter parody defamation cases raise novel questions about how to translate defamation law to Twitter’s interactive platform. What constitutes a “reasonable” reader on Twitter? What content is relevant to interpreting the meaning of a tweet from a parody account? The answers to these questions will have far-reaching effects for online speech. Parody authors are already vulnerable to defamation liability, particularly on Twitter where their statements often appear with very little context. Twitter parody accounts, which produce important political and social commentary, risk defamation lawsuits, as well as, in some states, criminal liability for online impersonation. This Note proposes a methodology …

Tobacco And The Small Screen: Why The Tvomb Should Restructure The Parental Guidelines, Courtney Leavitt
UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
This article summarizes the creation and workings of the TV Parental Guidelines and the Oversight Monitoring Board, potential First Amendment issues of a required rating system, and possible solutions to the problems of the current rating system. The TV Parental Guidelines and the Oversight Monitoring Board were created to fulfill requirements of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. The TV Parental Guidelines are meant to empower parents to control the content viewed by their children with useful ratings. However, the accuracy of ratings and understanding of the system are limited. Further, the complaint process is complex, with little authority to enforce …

Netflix, Amazon, YouTube, and Apple have been joined by Disney+, Twitch, Facebook, and others to supplant the broadcast industry. As the FCC, FTC, and other regulators struggle, a new digital divide has emerged. The current regulatory regime for television is built upon the government’s right to manage over-the-air broadcasting. As content producers shift away from broadcast and cable, much of the government’s regulatory control will end, resulting in new consequences for public policy and new challenges involving privacy, advertising, and antitrust law. Despite the technological change, there are compelling government interests in a healthy media environment. This article explores the …

Geifman Prize in Holocaust Studies
How art museums approach NLA is important today because much of the public relies on museums for their education. NLA cases are especially controversial because they are not only legal battles, but ethical ones so museums have to be extra careful approaching them. Even if the museum has won the legal battle the public may not see them as winning the ethical one therefore they might want to avoid displaying this information to the public. However, as we can see with the previous websites, it actually looks worse for museums not to be open and honest about their NLA pieces …

Copyright Fair Use And The Digital Carnivalesque: Towards A New Lexicon Of Transformative Internet Memes, David Tan, Angus J. Wilson
Fordham Intellectual Property, Media and Entertainment Law Journal
The influence of social media in the 21st century has led to new social norms of behavior with individuals presenting themselves to others, whether physically or virtually, on various social media platforms. As a result, these new trends have led recent society to be characterized as a “presentational cultural regime” and a “specular economy.” In a Bakhtinian digital carnivalesque, internet memes present a feast of challenges to exceptions and limitations in copyright law. Memes encompass a wide range of expression about the human experience, while also existing as a playful mode of culturally permissible expression in online social communications rather …

Combating Fake News With “Reasonable Standards”, Tawanna D. Lee
UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
Fake news is an intractable concern around the globe, sowing division and distrust in institutions, and undermining election integrity. This Article analyzes the spectrum of private and public regulation of “fake news” from comparative law and normative perspectives. In the United States, combating fake news shares surprising bipartisan support in an ever-divided political landscape. While several proposals have emerged that would strip Internet media companies of the liability shield for third-party content, it is unlikely that they would survive the seemingly insurmountable First Amendment scrutiny. This Article argues for a different tact—an amendment to the Communications Decency Act that addresses …
