Sorry, a SNAFU with my previous message.  I will try again.

The new act sounds great, but I wonder whether the networks will fight it as they fought in the past.  As I recall, they said compelling them to use video description went against the first amendment, and they won.  Assuming the court has not changed enough to reverse this ruling, what about the forthcoming law would prevent the same result?  Does anyone know about this from a legal standpoint?  Or is my memory altogether faulty?  Thanks.

Ilene
