Firing Line Friday: How Much Protection for the Press?

     In the hopes of encouraging a more civil, and illuminating, discourse, here is another episode of William F. Buckley, Jr.’s “Firing Line”.

     Journalists acting as if they are a special protected class or simply better than others is nothing new, as is the actual protection from “shield” laws the allow journalists to refuse to testify in court to protect sources. William F. Buckley, Jr. discusses just how much protection for the press there ought to be with Charles Rembar and C. Dickerman Williams.

     Until next Friday.
