Abstract
This paper deals with hate crimes in America , the nation?s response to the concept of the hate crime, and what measures are taken to prevent them. The author includes explicit historical references in the paper regarding anti-Semitic, racial and homosexual prejudices, etc.
From the Paper
"Prejudice is an omnipresent force, evident in civilizations throughout history. People naturally fear that which is different and unusual. Prejudice manifests itself in many forms, an innocent assumption, vulgar graffiti, offensive language, and even assault. It is when a crime becomes motivated by prejudice that it becomes a hate crime. Over the past few years, the nation has experienced an alarming number of disturbing and sometimes deadly hate crimes. The dragging death of Africa-American James Byrd, Jr., in Jasper, Texas; the deadly attack on Matthew Sheppard, a gay student in Laramie, Wyoming; the shooting rampage targeting minority citizens in Chicago; and the shootings of children at a Jewish community center in Los Angeles, California, followed by the murder of Joseph Santos Ileto, a Filipino-American mail worker. All of these events have left a trail of dead or wounded victims and traumatized, horrified communities."

Abstract
This paper discuses Replay Radio's product life cycle, channel management, an advertising plan and price, promotional and public relations strategies. The author points out that, during the launch phase, XM's marketing team should follow a skimming price strategy because of their competitive advantage and limited product availability. The paper relates that the pricing strategy for Replay Radio should be sales-oriented objective, which seeks some level of unit sales, dollar sales or share of market goal without referring to profit. The author recommends an initial promotion schedule starting the first of August so that the company can catch the height of sports, shopping and new releases for television shows and the music tour calendar. The paper suggests a public relation campaign by promoting technological sharing with the other satellite radio system Sirius, to assist in growing the industry market.
From the Paper
"The second phase is growth, during this phase of the product's life cycle the product tends to become more profitable and competitors tend to become more attracted to the market. Companies tend to start forming alliances, and more money is put into the advertising the product. Replay radio should be in mass production at this point of the life cycle and be marketed to manufacturers worldwide. The third phase is maturity; products that tend to survive the early phases normally spend the longest in this particular phase. Sales tend to grow at a decreasing rate then stabilize and price wars begin with the competition and promotion of the product becomes more widespread."

Should Hate Be Outlawed?, 2005.
This paper argues in favor of outlawing hate, due to the reason that it leads to hate crimes.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that since hate is an undesirable quality in human beings, it has been questioned by some whether or not it should be outlawed. The writer points out that such hate can lead to hate crimes. This paper discusses whether or not hate should be outlawed, taking the position that it should be outlawed because hate leads to hate crimes.
From the Paper
"Since hate is an undesirable quality in human beings, it has been suggested by some that it should be outlawed. A more legitimate reason for outlawing hate is because it leads to hate crimes. As a result, more and more hate crime legislation has been enacted throughout the country recently. In his book, 'Criminal Law', Peter W. Low writes that, "One of the interesting questions to play with...is what it is that makes criminal law unique". The unique thing about hate crimes is that they are so vile. Indeed, they should occupy their own niche in the area of criminal law in which a 'hate crime' would be a charge is levied in and of itself, in addition to the parallel crime.

Hate Speech, 2004.

»

Abstract
This paper discusses the legal debate surrounding the issue of free speech and hate speech and how the First Amendment's implications regarding this topic lack clarity and, therefore, are subject to numerous interpretations. The paper also looks at how college campuses have attempted to handle the problem of hate speech, examines some Supreme Court rulings on hate speech and hate symbols, and includes an overview of arguments for and against the use of hate speech laws and codes.
Constitutionality of Hate-Speech Laws and Legislation
College Campus Hate-Speech Codes
Fighting Words; Hate Symbols
State Interest in Regulating Hate-Speech
Arguments for and Against Such Laws and Codes
First Amendment Protection of Unpopular or Offensive Speech
Sentence Enhancement for Bias Motivated Crimes
Supreme Court Handling of Hate-Speech and Hate Crime Issues
From the Paper
"Interpretations of the First Amendment are at the center of the legal debates about free speech and hate speech. Like many articles in the Constitution, the exact meaning of the first amendment and the implications it had for the founding fathers are unclear. It provides a general orientation for federal action, but just how it is to be made operational is open to discussion. The conclusion reached will depend on the overall interpretive framework one uses. These frameworks, in turn, will merge into one's political and social philosophy. For example, at the time of its adoption, many thoughtful people believed that government should not prohibit the publication of one's views but could and should punish some writers for the harmful effects of such publication. This view, while plausible, is not the dominant interpretation at the present time."

"HATE SPEECH/HATE CRIMES
This research paper reviews and analyzes the constitutionality and other public policy aspects of efforts by governmental authorities and universities to deal with hate crimes and hate speech directed at ethnic, racial and other minority groups in the United States. Laws, ordinances and university codes enacted to counter hate crimes and hate speech involve fundamental questions of public order, free speech and equal protection under the law. In almost every instance in which the constitutionality of such measures have been tested in the courts, they have been found to be in violation of the free speech clause of the First Amendment. Only very narrowly drafted laws and codes stand much chance of surviving constitutional challenges to their validity. Such measures are evidence of a.."

Abstract
This paper describes the various hate crimes that take place throughout the U.S. on a regular basis, focusing particularly on the state of New Jersey. The paper also describes some of the legislation that has been enacted in an effort to fight hate crimes and discusses the need for even harsher laws for curtailing such crimes. The paper further explains that the present hate laws are ineffective as a deterrent and, therefore, are not helpful towards solving the problem of hate crimes. Finally, the paper outlines a plan for curtailing hate crimes that would include proper training for members of law enforcement in how to recognize and respond to hate crimes, the creation of a multi-agency task force on hate crimes, and sufficient state and federal funds for fighting hate crimes.
From the Paper
"Cross burning is one of the hate crimes that occur in the state of New Jersey on the regular basis. Cross burning can, in fact be traced back in history right up to the time of the infamous 'Ku Klux Clan', which was a group of people who were dedicated totally to the perpetration of hate and bias related crimes on minorities, mostly African-Americans living peacefully in that state. According to an eyewitness of the cross burning carried out outside an African-American's house in new Jersey, "Few things can chill free expression and association to the bone like night-riders outside the door, and a fiery cross in the yard". (O Say! Can you see: Free expression by the light of fiery Crosses) An African-American couple, Russ and Laura Jones, started to experience trouble with so called 'skinheads', as soon as they had shifted their place of residence to St.Paul, in Minnesota. They were, in fact, the only Blacks living in that all-white neighborhood, and this was indeed a neighborhood that was known for its racist culture and its hatred of blacks."

The paper looks at community radio as a new way of providing communication development support to the people residing outside of the major cities in India.

In conclusion, the writer posits that the denial of information to the lower classes aggravates the poverty gap and that community radio could help bridge this gap.

From the Paper
"In contrast to the government efforts to bridge the digital divide and to take the advantages of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to the masses, the colonial and fossilized Indian Broadcasting laws continues to hold sway over the broadcasting arena. On the one hand, Judiciary has endorsed that 'airways are public property', while on the other, in practical realm, lines between public and private broadcasting still remain conveniently blurred. No doubt, that private radio has made an entry into the Indian broadcast arena, but community radio remains to find legitimacy by the law of the land."

From the Paper
"Just as many TV viewers have come to consider cable TV a life necessity, so too is satellite radio becoming a mainstream replacement for traditional AM/FM listening. Similar to cable, this service has to be paid for, but just as with cable, you get a lot more channels and edgier, more innovative programming. An additional benefit is that there is no loss of your favorite station as you travel across the state or country. As an added plus, satellite players show the artist and name of the song, which is definitely an incentive for those who like to know what they're listening to."

Abstract
This paper examines how, during the years from 1930-1960, radio became an increasingly popular form of entertainment for Americans. It looks at how technological changes helped spark the spectacular growth of radio and how in the 1930s radio programs were hugely varied and included a wide number of entertainment programs, as well as a number of hugely popular news programs. It explores how governmental intervention in radio began in 1934 with the creation of the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) and how, in the years from 1930 to 1960, radio gradually shifted its focus from variety-style entertainment programs to music programming, largely as a result of the appearance of television. It also discusses how radio today focuses largely on the music industry rather than the variety programs that were popular during the years 1930-1940, but still remains a hugely popular part of American culture.

From the Paper
"In the 1940s, FM became popular, as the FCC authorized broadcasting on 42-50MHZ. During the war, manufacturing and technology boom in radio, although home users were limited by wartime shortages. In 1945, the FCC changed the FM band to 88 to 108 megacycles. In 1946, selenium rectifiers began to replace vacuum tube rectifiers. By 1947 the size of radios were reduced, as miniature rectifiers, tubes, transformers and printed circuit boards became popular. The transistor was invented in 1947, and first introduced to the public in 1948 (A Brief History of Radio). "

From the Paper
"June 14, 1998, in Jasper, Texas, three men offered James Byrd Jr. a ride. They then beat him, chained him to the back of a pickup and dragged him two and a half miles. His head and right arm were found in a ditch a mile from his body. Byrd was black, his killers were white. Solely because he was black, these three men exemplified James in an attempt to start a hate group in Jasper, Texas. Instead, attention brought to this incident has caused the world to take a close, hard look at hate and its removal from the new millennium. Along with their efforts to educate on diversity and acceptance, the Byrd Family has established the James Byrd Jr. Foundation for Racial Healing and has worked attentively on hate crime legislation."

Abstract
This paper analyzes why hate crimes are more harmful than traditional crimes, the problems with reporting and the changes necessary to determine the true scope of the problem with an emphasis on hate crimes committed on college campuses. The paper includes a legal discussion based on the idea that proponents of hate crime laws argue that additional penalties are warranted because crimes, motivated by bias, cause a greater harm to the victim and to society than crimes where the victim?s status is not a factor. The author feels that the data on hate crimes is so woefully inadequate that it is worthless for comparative purposes and for making policy recommendations.
Introduction
Hate Crimes Defined
Why Hate Crimes Matter
How Bias Crimes are Measured
Hate Crimes Data
Hate Crimes on College Campuses
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Of course, those definitions are just the beginning. Many groups push for a more expansive definition, or argue that this definition includes crimes that the FBI does not count. For example, some argue that rape is a hate crime. Other groups counter that the definition should not include sexual orientation. Regardless of what is included, it is important to note that the crime is based on the attacker?s perception. Thus, if the attacker hates Jews, and attacks someone based on the belief they are Jewish, the attacker is still guilty of a hate crime even if the victim turns out not to be Jewish."

Abstract
This paper examines the current trend of people listening more frequently to conservative or "right wing" talk shows. It focuses on the shows of three hosts - John Carlson, Michael Savage and Rush Limbaugh and discusses how they have successfully adapted their conservative radio programs to compete with new forms of media.
From the Paper
"Imagine a view from the early 1920?s; a family huddled together in front of their brand new radio. The children are excitedly waiting for the familiar sounds of ?The Lone Ranger.? Mom and Dad sit back, enjoying not only the family time together, but their moments of quiet relaxation. Eighty years ago this was the image most Americans conjure in their minds when they pictured the early day of radio. Today, radio has changed dramatically. The word radio no longer can describe the genera?s housed under it. We have music radio, with pop, rock, country and jazz. Separate from musical radio is talk radio, which encompassed home and garden tips, health information, and, often, conservative opinion talk radio programs."
