Paper Proposals

Hello all. After completing your midterm, your next goal is to begin your paper proposal. Your paper proposal should center on answering questions regarding mass communication and law or ethics. (You can also propose the intersection of law and ethics in regard to mass communication.) In previous semesters, students have looked at libel law and social media likes, privacy law and drones, and advertising law and celebrity spokespeople on Instagram.

We will build on this proposal in the following weeks.

In some states all parties must give their consent or at least be notified that the call is about to be recorded (with necessary opt-out option: if you don’t like them to record the call, you can ask them to stop recording). There also was a case law decision from many years ago (the 1950's) that went to the Supreme Court and affirmed that the federal law does not supersede state authority/statutes unless the call or the tap crosses state lines – that is why each state went ahead and established their own guideline/statute.
