Supreme Court Overturns Calif. Video Game Law

MELISSA BLOCK, Host:

This is All Things Considered from NPR News. I'm Melissa Block.

ROBERT SIEGEL, Host:

NPR legal affairs correspondent Nina Totenberg has more on that decision.

NINA TOTENBERG: Here's James Steyer of Common Sense Media.

BLOCK: I think we definitely hit the industry over the head with a 2X4. Over the five or six years, the industry has become far more accountable and much more careful about selling those kind of games to minors.

TOTENBERG: As Cardozo law professor Marci Hamilton observes, the court's majority opinion in the case took up just 18 pages.

P: The majority decision reads as though this was the easiest case in the world to decide on straightforward free speech principles.
