Three things every citizen should know about freedom of the press | Garrett Epps and Anne Kim

from Washington Monthly · host Washington Monthly

When the Associated Press refused to call the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of America," Donald Trump expelled AP from the White House press pool. Was this legal? Washington Monthly Legal Affairs Editor Garrett Epps and contributing editor Anne Kim walk through the key legal concepts that undergird the First Amendment's freedom of the press and the three things every citizen should know: that government censorship is illegal; that retaliation for free speech is unconstitutional; and that citizens have significant freedom to criticize their government and elected leaders.
