Your other framings are completely bogus. They miss the actual news, which is that arbitration clauses, specifically, are enforceable. This was an open question with good reasons to think they wouldn't be, so "Contracts Are Enforceable" doesn't capture what's interesting about it, and "Drivers Waste Court's Time" is just plain wrong.
- gwright 8y agoIt is my understanding that this is pretty established law (arbitration clauses). But in any case if it isn't, then I think a less pejorative headline would be "Uber Ruling Strengthens Arbitration Clauses" and not "Uber Forces ...."
- mikeash 8y agoI don't think it would have made it to an appeals court if it was that established. I still don't understand what's pejorative about this.
