: Blawg ReviewWorld Press Freedom Day
Blawg Review #262 to mark Word Press Freedom Day is hosted on the Public Intellectual blog, not a law blog.
Freedom starts with democratizing knowledge. It?s hard to imagine a democracy without a free press and freedom of speech. Anyone can claim to be a proponent of free speech. But most people are flip-floppers on free speech. The First Amendment is a lightswitch that they turn on an off as it suits their agenda.Check out the links selected for this special edition of Blawg Review on World Press Freedom Day.Have you ever met a person who openly admitted to being against ?free speech?? That seems to be an undesirable position, even among those who are in fact the First Amendment?s enemies; I find that such people don?t classify whatever they?re opposing as ?free speech.? Instead, they redefine it as something that sounds unpleasant, such as ?hate speech?; that way its easier to get people on board with denouncing it.
