I'm looking for US federal law on this topic, since I'm working with a company that sells digital signs nationwide.
I'm helping put together a blog post on the legality of showing a television channel on a digital sign. Many businesses that have these signs will use them to broadcast TV to customers. (For instance, a restaurant may have a digital menu and show CNN in one corner.)
What legal issues could a business that does this run into? Is it considered a clear violation of copyright law? Are there fair use exceptions for schools or other public entities?
Thanks in advance for any guidance!
