Arizona House Bill 2660 would have created a civil cause of action against producers and distributors of "dangerous" material, defined as material that is found to produce or incite a felony, if the producer or distributor knew or should have known that the material woulld result in a person committing a felony and the material was a cause in committing the felony.
History: Media Coalition submitted a memo in opposition to H.B. 2660 warning legislators of the chilling effect third party liability imposes on speech. The bill did not become law.
