A study developed an analytical tool for the critiquing |
|
of FCC legal arguments in the dimensions of purpose and |
|
quality. The supposition of the study was that law is an |
|
inherently rhetorical activity. The model elaborated was |
|
a situational matrix created out of the classical |
|
typologies of rhetorical occasions and oratory: the |
|
forensic, deliberative and epideictic. Usefulness of the |
|
matrix was demonstrated by the analysis of a problematic |
|
set of FCC cases: those concerning the character |
|
qualifications of broadcast licensees. The matrix should |
|
allow for the common elements of disparate legal |
|
discourse to be revealed more clearly so that better |
|
policies can be made within the FCC via its application, |
|
not only in relation to the question of the character |
|
qualifications of licensees, but in all commission |
|
legislative, executive and judicial functions aimed at |
|
promoting the general welfare through the powerful |
|
broadcast media. (Three figures are included, and 76 |
|
notes are attached.) (RAE) |
