Regulation of the Electronic Mass Media: Law and Policy for Radio, Television, Cable, and the New Video Technologies (American Casebooks)

Organization of materials reflects the reality of competition between media in the marketplace and pushes the students to analyze underlying legal issues in a broader context. The coverage is appropriate not only for the law school setting but also for specialized courses in schools of communication. The book relies heavily upon textual discussion to explain complex regulatory issues and to expose underlying policy considerations. The work is multi-disciplinary, pulling together materials from the fields of law, economics, and technology.
