BARRON † INTRODUCTION n this Essay, I will focus on two clashes between national security I and the First Amendment—the first is the Pentagon Papers case, the second is the WikiLeaks controversy.1 I shall first discuss the Pentagon Papers case. The Pentagon Papers case began with Daniel Ellsberg,2 a former Vietnam War supporter who became disillusioned with the war. Ellsberg first worked for the Rand Corporation, which has strong associations with the Defense Department, and in 1964, he worked in the Pentagon under then-Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara.3 He then served as a civilian government employee for the U.S. State Department in Vietnam4 before returning to the United † Harold H.

  • Turning the Camera on Court TV: Does Televising Trials Teach Us Anything About the Real Law?
    Turning the Camera on Court TV: Does Televising Trials Teach Us Anything About the Real Law? ANGELIQUE M. PAUL* I. INTRODUCTION What people think about the law is important because ours is a "public opinion" society, "which makes heavy use of referenda, and in which government does not lift a finger or move a muscle without reading the tea leaves of public desire."' The public's perception of justice influences the courts, the laws, the judges, and essentially the democratic process. So what influences the public's perception of justice? Television. For the majority of Americans, television is the most important source of information, and for many it is the only source of information. 2 This is particularly true when it comes to gathering information about the law. Because the majority of Americans have had no personal experience with the legal system,3 and because the majority of Americans get their information about the world solely from television, 4 the portrayal of justice on television is extremely important not only to the continued viability of the legal system, but also to the individual's understanding of that system. Studies indicate that the * The author would like to thank her parents, David and Lynda Paul, for their unconditional love and support. I David A.

FREE SPEECH AND CIVIL LIBERTIES IN THE SECOND CIRCUIT Floyd Abrams* INTRODUCTION Much of the development of First Amendment law in the United States has occurred as a result of American courts rejecting well-established principles of English law. The U.S. Supreme Court has frequently rejected English law, permitting far more public criticism of the judiciary than would be countenanced in England, rejecting English libel law as being insufficiently protective of freedom of expression1 and holding that even hateful speech directed at minorities receives the highest level of constitutional protection.2 The Second Circuit has played a major role in the movement away from the strictures of the law as it existed in the mother country. In some areas, dealing with the clash between claims of national security and freedom of expression, the Second Circuit predated the Supreme Court’s protective First Amendment rulings.

    WikiLeaks, the First Amendment and the Press By Jonathan Peters1 Using a high-security online drop box and a well-insulated website, WikiLeaks has published 75,000 classified U.S. documents about the war in Afghanistan,2 nearly 400,000 classified U.S. documents about the war in Iraq,3 and more than 2,000 U.S. diplomatic cables.4 In doing so, it has collaborated with some of the most powerful newspapers in the world,5 and it has rankled some of the most powerful people in the world.6 President Barack Obama said in July 2010, right after the release of the Afghanistan documents, that he was “concerned about the disclosure of sensitive information from the battlefield.”7 His concern spread quickly through the echelons of power, as WikiLeaks continued in the fall to release caches of classified U.S. documents. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton condemned the slow drip of diplomatic cables, saying it was “not just an attack on America's foreign policy interests, it [was] an attack on the 1 Jonathan Peters is a lawyer and the Frank Martin Fellow at the Missouri School of Journalism, where he is working on his Ph.D. and specializing in the First Amendment.
