This article defines the freedom of the college press after Hosty v. Carter. Part II of this article explores the history of freedom of the press at both the college and high school levels and, in particular, the impact of the Hazelwood School District and Hosty on this freedom. Part III outlines three possible standards of review to apply when evaluating the legal status of student newspapers at colleges and universities: 1. the Hosty/Hazelwood standard, 2. the "intermediate scrutiny" standard, and 3. the standard applied to professional journalists. Part IV explains why all three standards are inappropriate in this situation, highlighting the danger of upholding the Seventh Circuit's holding in Hosty. Finally, Part V articulates and analyzes a new test that at once incorporates elemen...
This Article examines the possible effect the Supreme Court's landmark Second Amendment ruling in District of Columbia v. Heller will have on future cases brought under the Free Press Clause. Based on the text and history of the Constitution, the connection between the two Clauses is undeniable, as the Heller Court itself repeatedly suggested. Only two provisions in the entire Constitution protect individual rights to a technology: the Second Amendment's right to bear "arms" and the Free Press Clause's right to the freedom of the "press," meaning the printing press. Both rights were viewed, moreover, as pre-existing, natural rights to the Framing generation and were separately called during the Framing the "palladium of liberty" and essential to "the security of freedom in a state." The...
At La Prensa San Diego, we are constantly reminded of our freedoms and how lucky we are to be able to enjoy them. As a minority owned newspaper, we are afforded the opportunity, through the International Vistor Leadership Program sponsored by the US. Department of State, to speak with a great many different people from around the world. Not only do we enjoy the Freedom to publish this newspaper. We share our experiences and minority reality with these visitors who come looking to see how we do what we do and find out if we truly have such Freedoms. With this visit by these parliamentarians we were talking with individuals who, for most of their lives, have never realized any of these Freedoms, in particular, Freedom of the Press. Uganda is a country that has had a history of dictatorial...

WASHINGTON (AP) - New York Times reporter Judith Miller was jailed Wednesday for refusing to divulge a confidential source to a grand jury investigating the Bush administration's leak of an undercover CIA operative's name. It added legal drama to what was already one of the most closely watched press freedom cases in recent history. Another reporter, Matthew Cooper, of Time magazine, agreed to cooperate with prosecutors after disclosing that his source had given him permission to do so hours earlier. Cooper's about-face, coming after nearly two years of refusals to disclose the information, spared him the likelihood of jail.
While mainstream dailies continue to lose circulation, the 2008 Project for Excellence in Journalism State of the News Media Report says that two of the three African American newspapers it examined in 2007 reported circulation gains, and many of the others "saw good circulation numbers." The book leads us through significant markers in black press history-Freedom's Journal, the influential role of Frederick Douglass and other abolitionist editors, Ida B. Wells' crusade against lynching, the Chicago Defender's efforts to urge Southern blacks to move north, the Pittsburgh Courier's Double V campaign in World War II, and coverage of the Civil Rights movement and its impact on black newspapers, to name a few.
Three days after writing the final chapter of Freedom Hall in Louisville's basketball history, Kyle Kuric still wasn't sure what it will mean for his future. He'd like to believe his playing time will continue to increase after he scored a career-high 22 points - all in the second half - during Saturday's 78-68 upset of top-ranked Syracuse. But if a bigger role doesn't come tonight when the Cardinals open the Big East Tournament, that's fine by Kuric too. If nothing else, he's received another huge confidence boost to go along with some ESPN fame.
In his recent piece on the Federal Communications Commission ("FCCdom of the press," Commentary Wednesday) writer Wayne Crews pulls together a well-thought-out history of freedom of the press. That the FCC feels the need to ensure that all citizens have access to what it believes is "balanced" news media totally confuses me. Isn't the freedom-of-the-press issue contained in the same constitutional amendment as the freedom of religion? Wasn't it only recently that a federal judge ruled that a National Day of Prayer violates this amendment? Wouldn't the involvement of the FCC in deciding anything with regard to the press be an unconstitutional intrusion of the government into freedom of the press? As there is no government compulsion to participate in a National Day of Prayer, there shoul...
