Editorial Rights of Telephone Carriers

An ongoing issue in communications policy concerns the proper role of the local telephone exchange carriers in the provision of con tent. Historically, these regulated monopolies acted solely as content-neutral common carriers. This status is undergoing a dramatic change, as the telecommunications system becomes a conduit for mass communication services and as local carriers begin to face competition. The removal of the information services ban by the federal district court in 1991 was only one action of many in the past decade applying First Amendment principles, especially the recognition of editorial rights, to the telephone carriers.
