Friday, November 5, 1976 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Three Judge rules TVfamity hour' unconstitutional LOS ANGELES (P) -- A fed- eral judge ruled yesterday that adoption of the controversial "family viewing" period by the networks and the National As- sociation of Broadcasters (N AB) violates the First Amend- ment. U. S. District Court Judge Warren Ferguson also held that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) "violatedj the First Amendment by issu- ing threats of government ac- tion" through FCC Chairman Richard Wiley "should the in- dustry not adopt the family viewing policy or the equivalent thereof."I BUT THE JUDGE, in saying: I adoption of the early eveningi: "family viewing" policy violat- l ed the First Amendment, allow- ed each network to continue or' drop the policy "provided that such programming decisions are made independent of concern for government reaction." He said each network must' make its programming deci-, sions independently "and may not without violating the First Amendment enter into agree-, ments with the NAB which con- dition their membership in NAB on adherence to the family viewing policy or enter into any other agreements which. dele- gate their programming author- ity over family viewing to the NAB. "Their delegation of author- ity in this case violated the First Amendment," he ruled. THE NETWORKS, the NAB and the FCC had no immediate comment. The ruling came in a lawsuit filed in October 1975 by three entertainments guilds, two pro- duction companies and nine sit- uation comedy makers, among them producer Norman Lear, creator of the "All in the Fam- ily" series.
