Freedom of the Press - Many Students Call For A Limit
The First Amendment provides the media with the freedom to publish/broadcast their stories without government restriction. It is one of our most precious freedoms. However, the misinterpretation of the facts has led many individuals to feel that the media can no longer give them the real facts and thus should be censored.
I was shocked as I read an article in USA Today that reports that one in three students say the press should be restricted and should require the approval of the government. Are our public schools producing democratic citizens?
