Defendants E! Entertainment Television LLC (“E!”) and Fox Broadcasting Company have filed responses in opposition, to which Plaintiff has replied. (Docket Nos. 95, 95 & 99). For the reasons that follow, the Court will grant Plaintiff’s Motion to Vacate and vacate the judgment that granted Defendants’ Motions to Dismiss, and dismissed this action on statute of limitations grounds. However, the Court will grant Fox’s Motion to Dismiss for failure to state a claim. The Court will also grant in part, and deny in part, E!’s Motion to Dismiss. I.

    NOT RECOMMENDED FOR PUBLICATION File Name: 15a0490n.06 No. 14-5709 UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SIXTH CIRCUIT COREY D. CLARK; JAERED ANDREWS, ) ) Plaintiffs-Appellants, ) ) v. ) ON APPEAL FROM THE ) UNITED STATES DISTRICT VIACOM INTERNATIONAL INC.; VIACOM ) COURT FOR THE MIDDLE MEDIA NETWORKS; VIACOM, INC.; JIM ) DISTRICT OF TENNESSEE CANTIELLO; ) ) Defendants-Appellees. ) ) BEFORE: GRIFFIN and STRANCH, Circuit Judges; and STEEH, District Judge.* GRIFFIN, Circuit Judge. Almost a decade after Corey Clark and Jaered Andrews were publicly disqualified from participating on the television show American Idol, they filed a variety of defamation-related claims over statements contained in several online news articles that, over the years, had referenced their disqualifications. Ultimately, the district court dismissed all of the claims asserted in the complaint. This appeal raises two central questions. First, does the pertinent one-year statute of limitations permit Clark and Andrews to assert defamation claims with respect to statements that were posted to publicly accessible websites before the one-year limitations period but have *The Honorable George Caram Steeh III, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Michigan, sitting by designation. No. 14-5709 Clark v. Viacom Int’l Inc. remained continuously accessible to the online public since then? And if not, have Clark and Andrews sufficiently pled defamation claims with respect to the statements that do fall within the limitations period? The answer to both questions is “no.” We therefore affirm the judgment of the district court. I. Ten years after his appearance in 2002 as a contestant on American Idol, Corey Clark filed a federal-court diversity action, alleging that numerous online statements made in MTV News and VH1 articles written by Jim Cantiello and other authors had defamed him and otherwise tortiously injured him over the preceding decade.

  • Strategic Communication Efforts Surrounding American Idol's Loss
    Volume 1 2012 www.csscjournal.org ISSN 2167-1974 Is Breaking Up Hard to Do?: Strategic Communication Efforts Surrounding American Idol’s Loss of Paula Abdul Sarah MacDonald Pepperdine University Emily S. Kinsky Kristina Drumheller West Texas A&M University Abstract The reality show American Idol has made its way to the top of television ratings in nearly all of its 11 seasons to date. However, a challenge came with the departure of original Idol judge Paula Abdul after unsuccessful contract negotiations in 2009. During the crisis, social media were filled with rumors and comments from disgruntled Abdul fans. This case study examines the strategic communication efforts of American Idol producers during this crisis. Image restoration methods by the producers are examined and suggestions are made for future similar crises. Keywords: reality television; Fox; Paula Abdul; American Idol; Twitter; social media; image restoration; celebrity; strategic communication The boom of reality television is, for the most part, a product of the new millennium. These productions are unpredictable, providing enough intrigue to keep viewers watching for an entire season (Consoli, 2001). It is a market known for the outrageous, volatile, and unpredictable contestants typically chosen by producers to draw a mass audience. Producers, hosts, and even scriptwriters welcome any media attention toward the contestants, regardless of the negative light commonly shed on these unassuming participants. To producers and promoters, any publicity that gets people talking about the show is good publicity. But what To cite this article MacDonald, S., Kinsky, E. S., & Drumheller, K. (2012).

  • How American Idol Constructs Celebrity, Collective Identity, and American Discourses
    AMERICAN IDEAL: HOW AMERICAN IDOL CONSTRUCTS CELEBRITY, COLLECTIVE IDENTITY, AND AMERICAN DISCOURSES A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Amanda Scheiner McClain May, 2010 i © Copyright 2010 by Amanda Scheiner McClain All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is a three-pronged study examining American themes, celebrity, and collective identity associated with the television program American Idol. The study includes discourse analyses of the first seven seasons of the program, of the season seven official American Idol message boards, and of the 2002 and 2008 show press coverage. The American themes included a rags-to-riches narrative, archetypes, and celebrity. The discourse-formed archetypes indicate which archetypes people of varied races may inhabit, who may be sexual, and what kinds of sexuality are permitted. On the show emotional exhibitions, archetypal resonance, and talent create a seemingly authentic celebrity while discourse positioning confirms this celebrity. The show also fostered a complication-free national American collective identity through the show discourse, while the online message boards facilitated the formation of two types of collective identities: a large group of American Idol fans and smaller contestant-affiliated fan groups. Finally, the press coverage study found two overtones present in the 2002 coverage, derision and awe, which were absent in the 2008 coverage. The primary reasons for this absence may be reluctance to criticize an immensely popular show and that the American Idol success was no longer surprising by 2008. By 2008, American Idol was so ingrained within American culture that to deride it was to critique America itself.
