Bill am Grill: Video erneut gefordert
Nach der New Times & anderen Medien, deren Ansuchen
gerichtlich abgeschmettert ward, tritt nun ein prominenter
(ex)Richter für mehr Video/öffentlichkeit ein. Das
Video/testimonial von Bill Gates, sagt Robert Bork, sei
deshalb deshalb öffentlich zu machen, weil Kartellklagen
laut Statuten öffentlich zu führen seien.

Darryl K. Taft
10/02/98 4:16 a.m. ET A prominent former judge and current
consultant to Netscape called for the public release of
Microsoft chairman Bill Gates' videotaped pretrial testimony
to the U.S. Department of Justice.
...
Although a protective order issued by the judge presiding
over the case where the Justice Department and 20 states
have sued Microsoft (company profile) restricts the release
of proprietary information, Bork said Gates' testimony -- at
least the parts involving nonconfidential material -- should
be released.

"Statutes clearly say depositions in antitrust cases must be
public," Bork said in a statement. "Surely Mr. Gates is not
suggesting he is above the law."

Prior to Gates' deposition, attorneys for a group of media
organizations, including The New York Times and The Seattle
Times, filed motions to open Gates and other Microsoft
officials' testimony to the media and the public. The court
ruled against the so-called interveners.
...
Bork added Microsoft's attorneys are trying to shield Bill
Gates' deposition in an antitrust case. "That is not what
the public deserves and has a right to under the law," he
said.
