• Freedom of the Press

• Published by Greenhaven Press

Since the advent of the printing press in the fifteenth century, the press has met the needs of the public by providing information about current events and activities undertaken by its leaders. This integral role of the press was recognized with its inclusion in the First Amendment, guaranteeing a press that was free from government intervention. This anthology analyzes the treatment of the press's freedom by the Supreme Court in the twentieth century, defining the breadth and width of this right as an important adjunct to the guarantee of free speech.
