Even after his recent bombshell adultery scandal, the public still knows very little about the man behind the golf clubs and multimillion-dollar endorsement deals. But one thing is certain: Earl Woods, Tiger’s beloved and now deceased father, NOVeMBer 2010 knew him better and influenced his life more than anyone. So, in Sports/Biography this case, to know the father is to know the son. 978-1-592-40597-8 In His Father’s Son, Tom Callahan offers a full-blown biography of $27.00 ($33.50 CAN.)

  • Can Contract Law Trump First Amendment Law?
    Communication Law Review Volume 19, Issue 1 Can Contract Law Trump First Amendment Law? Juliet Dee, University of Delaware* This article examines the legal issues surrounding non-disclosure agreements (NDAs); specifically, anyone who signs a non-disclosure agreement waives his or her First Amendment rights because courts tend to rule that contract law takes precedence over one's freedom of speech if one willingly enters into the contract by signing it. After examining past and current cases in which former CIA agents challenged their non- disclosure agreements, the article turns its focus on recent cases in which those who worked on Donald Trump's campaign or White House staffers in the Trump administration have challenged their non-disclosure agreements. If courts consistently uphold non-disclosure agreements, the public will not have access to information from those who are potentially the most knowledgeable and credible sources of the operations of our government. During the past four years, attorneys representing President Donald Trump have taken legal action against former employees and associates who had signed non-disclosure agreements (NDAs). Although Trump had made it a common practice to have his employees sign NDAs in his normal business dealings before becoming President, his attempts to silence former White House staffers with NDAs have raised profound legal questions about whether courts will uphold a signed contract or whether courts will find such contracts to be unenforceable because they prevent the free flow of information to the public, thus violating the First Amendment. In other words, Trump is using non- disclosure agreements to silence those around him and stop them from telling the truth.
