1982-2007
"Celtic Classics want culture, not comment" Elliot Grossman Of the Morning Call 9/90 "For the first time in the Celtic Classic's three-year history, entertainers will be barred from offreing their political views during performances." ... "Jeffrey E. Jacobson, a New York City entertainment lawyer, said he would advise entertainers against agreeing to such a provision." "I think it's certainly a restraint on performers' individual rights of freedom and expression and their rights of freedom of speech,: he said. "Regardless of the sentiment of the audience, I think a performer has a right to express his or her own ideas . . . . It obviously seems unfair and un-American." "He noted that an increasing number of performers have been publicly supporting various causes, including those involving the enviornment, homelessness and hunger." | Blast from the Past
