This is a must watch if you’re concerned about increasing first amendment limitations in higher education:
The National Constitution Center released the following video Tuesday:
The growth of the Internet has made it ever harder to distinguish public from private, news from titillation, and journalists from provocateurs.
Author Amy Gajda examines the media today and its impact on the constitutional privileges of the press.
Gajda is Associate Professor of Law at the Tulane University Law School, and she is recognized internationally for her expertise in media law, torts, information privacy and higher education law.
Gajda was also an award-winning television news anchor and reporter, whose work was published in newspapers including The New York Times, to her insight into the tensions between social regulation and protected expression. Her scholarly articles have appeared in the California Law Review and other legal journals.
