ZIPURSKY: Welcome to the Fordham Intellectual Property, Media & Entertainment Law Journal’s Sixth Annual Symposium on the First Amendment and the Media. I am Profes- sor Benjamin Zipursky of Fordham University School of Law. Out first panel discussion covers one of the hot topics in both the television industry and the legal profession, the V-chip and the constitutionality of the associated television ratings that will be re- quired to make the chip work properly. I would like to introduce today’s panelists. Our first speaker is Eric Burns. He is a media analyst with Fox News Channel.

[Vol. 8:303 sively over the past year or so. Next, we will hear from David Moulton, chief of staff for United States Representative Edward Markey of Massachusetts. Mr. Moulton was the principal House staff member during the drafting of the V-chip law. He was also influential in the television industry’s development of the rating system that works in connection with the V-chip. We also will hear from Robert Peters, president of Morality in Media. Mr. Pe- ters has been very active on the V-chip and television ratings issue, having submitted official comments to the Federal Communica- tions Commission (“FCC”). Next, we will hear from Thomas Johnson, a senior writer from the Media Research Center in Alex- andria, Virginia. He has written extensively on the subject of tele- vision ratings. Our next speaker will be Donald Hawthorne an as- sociate with Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison. He has written widely on communication law topics. After all the presentations we will have a roundtable discussion and then I will open up questions to the audience. Let’s start with Eric Burns. MR. BURNS: Let me start with a joke that is very popular among lawyers. It involves a client who is terribly upset because his lawyer keeps giving him advice that seems to be contradictory. At one point the client says to a friend, “The next time I retain a lawyer, it will be a lawyer who has just one arm.” His friend asks, “Why?” The client responds, “So that I cannot hear ‘on the one hand and then on the other hand.’” I did not start with that joke to indicate that lawyers either do or do not collectively have a great sense of humor. Instead, I told it because, regrettably, my position on the issue of television rat- ings is a matter of on-the-one-hand and on-the-other-hand. On the one hand, I fail to see how people can have great dis- agreement with it. As has been said many times, what the rating system does, however imperfectly, is provide more information.1 More information can only be good. If the information is deemed 1.See Edward J.

The information, however, is criticized by some as being arbi- trary,2 which it has to be. But it is certainly less arbitrary than the movie rating system.3 The movie rating system, for me as a par- ent, has some value. It is obviously not perfect. I have been sur- prised by some “PG” movies that I thought should have been “R” or worse. Sometimes, although not terribly often, I may see an “R” movie and wonder why it is not “PG.” But the rating system for movies is more arbitrary than television, because fairly recently the television rating system has provided more information.4 At the movies, the big surprise is whether the “R” rating is re- lated to language or violence.5 That is not a surprise on television anymore because the rating system is specific. It has distinct rat- ings that are assigned because of violence, sexual situations, or language.6 I fail to see how there can be serious objections to this kind of information, which may be disregarded if one so chooses. On the other hand, I do not watch much television. In fact, I have never seen a complete episode of Seinfeld; I have never seen 2.See Aaron Barnhart, TV Ratings Headed for Rewrite to Give Parents More Guid- ance Compromise Adds Labels to Age-based Voluntary System, KANSAS CITY STAR, Jun. 25, 1997, at A1 (discussing survey that found that a majority of parents with young chil- dren were not using the system because of the arbitrary nature of the ratings assigned to shows); see also Lawrie Mifflin, Parents Give TV Ratings Mixed Reviews, N.Y.

In addition to the age based ratings, the following content specific ratings were added: “V” for violence, “S” for sexual content, “L” for vulgar language, “D” for sug- gestive dialogue, and “FV” for fantasy violence in children’s programs.

[Vol. 8:303 an entire episode of a program produced by Steven Bochco.7 It is not uncommon for people who work in television to watch televi- sion less than others. I say this to point out my ignorance of television, which is im- portant to my point. If someone who watches as little television as I do knows the approximate content of every television show be- fore viewing it, other people should know too. Any situation- comedy on one of the six networks8 today, which is on after 8 p.m., will have many breast or derriere jokes with much sexual in- nuendo, if not sexual situations. If a situation comedy rises above this level of body parts and lack of imagination, there is so much publicity that you cannot help but notice. I do not understand why people need a rating system in order to tell their children not to watch a particular show. I never saw an episode of The Cosby Show either, but I live in this culture, so I know that The Cosby Show—not the one now, but the one in the 1980s9—was a clean show. By the same token, for a Steven Bochco television program on after 9 p.m., do you really need to see the rating to know that the program will contain vio- lence? The need for ratings surprises me to some extent.

First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

By EISA AL NASHMI A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2011 1 © 2011 Eisa Al Nashmi 2 I came to the United States 11 years ago in pursuit of an education and my journey ends with this dissertation. My faith, my family and my love of my country have certainly kept me going throughout. To Allah for all the blessings He has bestowed upon me. To my family for their patience while I was away To Kuwait for believing in me and for giving me the opportunity of a lifetime I hope I made everyone proud. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to begin by thanking my committee members for their continuous support and guidance. I would like to thank my chair, Dr. Johanna Cleary, for motivating me and being there whenever I needed her. Most of my Ph.D. friends were jealous of me because of how amazing she was. Her kindness, patience and trust in her students are attributes that I hope to follow in my future career at Kuwait University. I was fortunate to have her as my chair and I really appreciate everything she has done for me. I would like to thank professor Melinda McAdams for being part of my academic life since the beginning of master‘s degree. In the past six years, she has taught me most of what I know about new media and has inspired me with her expertise and teaching style.
