A Law Against Lying on the News →

The First Amendment does not permit government interference with “the freedom of the press.” What that freedom is, is among the great undefined terms in American jurisprudence. But its enduring strength is that few are willing to take the first step down the slippery slope of determining who is a journalist and who is not, and what constitutes good journalism and what does not.

Burke gave Baker a raised hand to slap in celebration after Baker scored a home run. Murray State University basketball player Lamont Sleets has challenged this story though, claiming that he developed the gesture while playing on his college...

If a map were drawn up with crosshairs over the locations of each of these folks, do you think everyone will say it’s a true blue class war or just an isolated incident of insanity when someone attempts to kill these people?
