For Freedom Or Full Of It? State Attempts To Silence Social Media, Grace Slicklen
For Freedom Or Full Of It? State Attempts To Silence Social Media, Grace Slicklen
University of Miami Law Review
Freedom of speech is, unsurprisingly, foundational to the “land of the free.” However, the “land of the free” has undergone some changes since the First Amendment’s ratification. Unprecedented technological evolution has ushered in a digital forum in which the volume, speed, and reach of words transcend the Framers’ visions of the First Amendment’s aims. Social media platforms have become central spaces for public discourse, where opportunities to create—and repress—speech are endless. From enabling individuals to freely express their views, to allowing state actors to limit open exchanges, it is about time that the Supreme Court tackles this complex issue of …

The Death Of A Princess Cases: Television Programming By State-Owned Public Broadcasters And Viewers' First Amendment Rights, Jonathan Goodman
The Death Of A Princess Cases: Television Programming By State-Owned Public Broadcasters And Viewers' First Amendment Rights, Jonathan Goodman

Toward A Constitutional Theory Of Expression: The Copyright Clause, The First Amendment, And Protection Of Individual Creativity, Jacqueline Shapiro
Toward A Constitutional Theory Of Expression: The Copyright Clause, The First Amendment, And Protection Of Individual Creativity, Jacqueline Shapiro
