Despite the fact this blogs main topic is new and old music, it is for my Internet Marketing course. Throughout the semester we have had to post four blogs relating to our outside group topic (Legal and Ethical Issues in Marketing). In my previous blogs on this topic and with this one included, I have tried my hardest to incorporate music into these posts to relate it to my blog. There are 100's of articles out there strictly relating to the legal and ethical issues involving marketing but in order to make it a little more interesting I have been finding articles on legal and ethical issues pertaining to the marketing/advertising of music or more specific issues.

This is my last post on this topic and I put a great deal of time into finding the last article I wanted to write about. The link posted in this blog is to a peer reviewed areticle that I found particularly interesting. The article is in regards to attorney advertising and the use of the First Amendment. The issue as hand is how the First Amendment is used to protect attorney advertising from state restrictions. By doing this the guidlines set by the Rules of Professional Conduct have not been followed.

Lawyers for a long time had been advertising in any means as they have pleased which will soon come to an end with the implementation of new rules regarding the Aspirational Goals of law firms and attorney advertising.

I know this article has nothing to do with music like the others ones regarding legal and ethical issues in marketing have but this is a very interesting article to check out. My major is criminal justice so articles like these bringing about knowlege in different aspects of merging fields are very interesting to me.

I hope you have the time to check it out if you are interested at all topics like these.
Thanks :) VQUZESHUF
