1. Should the NFL Players' Association be permitted to purchase ad time for the purpose of broadcasting a message seeking public support for its position during labor negotiations?
2. What do you think about the union strategy of attempting to communicate its position to the public through the use of television media? If permitted, would the strategy likely be successful from the union's point of view?
3. Should NFL owners protest the union's attempted use of the media to communicate its position directly to the public, should the owners prepare a commercial message of their own for possible broadcast, or should the owners say nothing and avoid the issue? Explain your rationale.
