Planned overhaul

I will be editing this article as a part of a school research assignment this quarter. I plan to add more factual background and the procedural posture of the case (how it got to the Supreme Court and how courts below decided the case). I also plan to elaborate on the impact of the case which the current version only briefly touches on in mentioning the Privacy Protection Act of 1980.

I plan to read Zurcher v. Stanford Daily, 436 U.S. 547 and the Privacy Protection Act of 1980. I will also read Citicasters, Inc. v. McCaskill, 883 F. Supp. 1282, a similar case that was decided after the passage of the Privacy Protection Act of 1980. I am also going to read a law review article for background on the topic and the impact of the case: Elizabeth B. Uzelac, Reviving the Privacy Protection Act of 1980, 107 Nw. U. L. Rev. 1437, 1464 (2013).

Please let me know if you have any feedback or if there are other sources you recommend I explore to write on this topic. Thank you! Alel19 (talk) 21:05, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

If you have any problems, just ask. I added a section header to your note so it is easy to fine. To get a feel note that the Stanford Daily archives are all online. Probably not too good for citable source material but can give you a feel for the campus atmosphere at the time. Also Stanford in Turmoil: Campus Unrest, 1966-1972 by Richard Lyman (then University President) may discuss it (though you might not have easy access to the book). --Erp (talk) 00:39, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

Alex's comment

The entry looks really good and your plan to read the relevant stat., cases and law review articles is great. One of the interesting aspects of the case that caught me is the statutory fix after the case and you, of course, have already pointed it out. Look forward to learning more about this case.
