POS 359--The Current Supreme Court Term
In class today, Thursday 2/12, I collected the Summum papers. We spent the class reviewing the class's predictions, and also going over what the "right" (as opposed to "likely") outcome would be. I plan on returning the papers on Tuesday. The assignment for Tuesday 2/17 is to read in the Jan Greenburg book pp. 1-107.
CMJ 375--Mass Media Law
In class today, Thursday 2/12, I returned the exams, and we went over them. I then discussed the impact of the First Amendment on common law defamation, going over N.Y. Times v. Sullivan (text, p. 131) and Harte-Hanks v. Connaughton (text, p. 135). The assignment for Tuesday 2/17 is to read in the text pp. 148-162, and the Zeran case on p. 85 of the casebook.
