The Comment considers the issues confronted by the Alaska Supreme Court and compares decisions with the United States Supreme Court decisions examining similar issues. The Author concludes by considering the implication of these decisions as well as urging the Alaska Supreme Court to aggressively uphold the protections of privacy granted in the Alaska Constitution

    Changing the Rules of the Game: The New FCC Regulations on Political Debates

    No full text
    In November 1983, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), in the spirit of deregulation and in response to pressure from broadcasters, changed its policy toward radio and television sponsorship of political debates. Under the old policy, a station could broadcast a debate as a news event and avoid the costs of providing equal time to fringe candidates only if someone else sponsored the debate. Under the new rule, stations can arrange and hold debates in their own studios without any obligation to provide equal time. The author analyzes the potential consequences of the new rule, questioning the propriety of the FCC\u27s enactment of this new policy
