How do we get a COURT INJUNCTION to Stop the NCAA from harassing Flocast/Trackshark/etc. for hosting interviews that were conducted at a hotel, airport, on the street ? Is there an organzation which I can contact who handles 1st Amendment Freedom cases like this. Who are the persons in the NCAA doing the harassment ? Maybe we can contact the district attorney in Indianapolis, Indiana ? I'm Not A Lawyer.
The real question is how do we get a court injunction to stop you from continually harassing this message board?
Unless you are conected to Flocast or Trackshark you likely do not have standing to pursue any legal remedies against the NCAA. So if you want someone to do something go bother those sites and leave the rest of us alone.
The answer is "you don't" and "you can't" and "you shouldn't be able to." It's funny how myopic people are; folks who are otherwise such rabid "capitalists" somehow think video rights should suddenly be entirely free. Kinda funny.

for about the ten thousandth time, the 1st amendment applies to government entities. the ncaa, your mom, letsrun.com, and your employer are not government entities.
Considering that the original poster is referring to interviews, the NCAA has no right to harrass flocast/tracksark et al. However, the OP also has no right, only the offended websites would be able to. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is usually very interested in such matters, though unlikely that much could be done, contacting them would be worthwile if you are extremely interested.
Alot of guys died for the freedoms you enjoy today. Most folks take it for granted until Big Brother Comes A Whinein'. The Electronic Frontier Foundation may help. You have a good case since anyone can video in a hotel.

I think that is obvious.
Yea, The Best Defense is OFFENSE, I wanna see flocasts interview Allison Stokke at Cal this fall. The NCAA can stick it in the rear.

Only if you have the permission of the hotel owner. You people really need to learn the difference between government and private action.

Please stop using our name (and I know Flocast would feel the same way) in threats to the NCAA along with all of your threads.
You have no idea what you're talking about.
What form is this alleged "harassment" taking?
Will the NCAA make fc take off my interview of Allison Stokke that I have planned this fall ? Hope to see her at the Pole Vault Summit. Which websites are immune from the NCAA ?
You can upload all the videos you take then tell us about the link o.k. The NCAA doesn't care about T&F. Place on many websites outside of United States. You will have millions of downloads I promise.
