Media & Entertainment Law Compendium, by Eric E. Johnson

A free, downloadable casebook for media and entertainment law.

Note to instructors:

This casebook is being made available for free download on the internet. I invite you to assign it for your classes if you would like. If you do, I would appreciate your sending me a note to let me know it was useful. If this casebook seems promising, but doesn’t quite fit your needs, please contact me. I will happily provide you with the source file (MS Word .doc), so you can edit it to your liking.

Teaching notes, slides, and other resources for teachers are available on request. (At no charge, of course.)
