Park v. Capital Cities Communications, Inc.
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION OF THE COURT
Green, J.
Plaintiff, John H. Park, M.D., a licensed ophthalmologist, describes himself as a "pioneer” or "champion” of new techniques in eye surgery. In the early 1980’s, Dr. Park appeared on local radio and television stations in Buffalo to discuss cataract surgery and corneal transplants. Dr. Park also invited all three network affiliate television stations in Buffalo to do a story on outpatient cataract surgery performed at his office. Apparently Channel 7 agreed with Dr. Park’s assessment of his work as "newsworthy” and broadcast a story on him on August 10, 1982.
