  • New York Times: Free Speech Lawyering in the Age of Google and Twitter
    THE “NEW” NEW YORK TIMES: FREE SPEECH LAWYERING IN THE AGE OF GOOGLE AND TWITTER Marvin Ammori INTRODUCTION When Ben Lee was at Columbia Law School in the 1990s, he spent three months as a summer associate at the law firm then known as Lord, Day & Lord, which had represented the New York Times1 in New York Times Co. v. Sullivan.2 During those months, Lee listened to the firm’s elder partners recount gripping tales of the Sullivan era and depict their role in the epic speech battles that shaped the future of free expression. Hearing these stories, a young Lee dreamed that one day he too would participate in the country’s leading speech battles and have a hand in writing the next chapter in freedom of expression. When I met with Lee in August 2013, forty-nine years after Sulli- van, he was working on freedom of expression as the top lawyer at Twitter. Twitter and other Internet platforms have been heralded for creating the “new media,”3 what Professor Yochai Benkler calls the “networked public sphere,”4 for enabling billions around the world to publish and read instantly, prompting a world where anyone — you and I included — can be the media simply by breaking, recounting, or spreading news and commentary.5 Today, freedom of the press means ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Fellow, New America Foundation; Partner, the Ammori Group. The Ammori Group is an “opinionated law firm” dedicated to advancing freedom of expression and Internet freedom, and its clients have included Google, Dropbox, Automattic, Twitter, and Tumblr. The author would like to thank Alvaro Bedoya, Yochai Benkler, Monika Bickert, Nick Bramble, Alan Davidson, Tony Falzone, Mike Godwin, Ramsey Homsany, Marjorie Heins, Adam Kern, Ben Lee, Andrew McLaughlin, Luke Pelican, Jason Schulman, Aaron Schur, Paul Sieminski, Ari Shahdadi, Laura Van Dyke, Bart Volkmer, Dave Willner, and Jonathan Zittrain.
