TFAW Announces Second Annual CBLDF Fundraising Event!
In 2009, Things From Another World and the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund teamed up with comic book publishers and artists to help raise more than $30,000 for the CBLDF’s annual auction at San Diego Comic-Con. Now TFAW is proud to announce the Second Annual SDCC Autograph Card/CBLDF Auction event.
This fundraiser is already off to an excellent start this year: TFAW is thrilled to announce the participation of their flagship partner, Image Comics, one of the premier comic book publishers in the nation. The stellar folks at Image Comics are serious about supporting the CBLDF, and they are kicking things off with donations of art from many of their colossally talented creators!

News Media Responds to EMA v. Schwarzenegger
by Amy Long
for The Media Coalition
Over 100 newspapers, websites, and blogs reported on the Supreme Court’s decision to grant California’s petition for certiorari in EMA v. Schwarzenegger. Papers across the United States, Canada and Britain carried the news, which reached as far as New Zealand’s Top News, the Ethiopian Review and Thailand’s The Thaindian paper, which takes a view that is generally supportive of the state’s position (though it notes that Schwarzenegger “seemed a tad too pleased with the court’s decision”). The case will be taken up by the Court in its fall term. Full coverage after the jump.
Supreme Court to Decide Whether States Can Regulate Violent Video Games
On Monday, the Supreme Court agreed to review a ruling that the First Amendment bars restrictions on video games with violent themes. The Comic Book Legal Defense Fund has actively opposed such restrictions, including participating in a 2008 friend-of-the-court (aka amicus) brief filed by the Media Coalition, addressing this same case. In hearing this case, the Supreme Court will decide whether or not it will adopt a new constitutional standard that allows states to ban violent content.
