Hear that? That's the sound of you failing. Nothing like using previous legal rulings to make a point about the first amendment.
Oh, and while I'm at it, under what ethical and moral code is it permissible to hide the wholesale slaughter of civilians and yet be livid when collaborators and spies are revealed?
Justice Black - NEW YORK TIMES CO. v. UNITED STATES, 403 U.S. 713 (1971) or The Pentagon Papers case Wrote:Only a free and unrestrained press can effectively expose deception in government. And paramount among the responsibilities of a free press is the duty to prevent any part of the government from deceiving the people and sending them off to distant lands to die of foreign fevers and foreign shot and shell.
