A quotation from Bertrand Russell
All the governments of the world adopt elaborate methods of concealing truths which they consider undesirable, and inflict various forms of penalty upon those who spread knowledge which is thought bad for the population This applies especially to knowledge of the kind which is considered seditious, and the kind which is considered obscene. I shall not give instances, since, if I did, I should myself fall under the ban of the law.
Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
Education and the Social Order [Education and the Modern World], ch. 1 “The Individual versus the Citizen” (1932)More about this quote: wist.info/russell-bertrand/853…

The #AP says that if #journalists are invited to cover an event on a pool basis — such as last week when #Trump had meetings in the Oval Office with Saudi Arabia’s crown prince & New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani — it cannot #discriminate on the basis of a news organization’s #FreedomOfSpeech.
“The First Amendment does not stop at the Oval Office door,” said Charles Tobin, the attorney representing the AP.

A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt
Government is competent when all who compose it work as trustees for the whole people. It can make constant progress when it keeps abreast of all the facts. It can obtain justified support and legitimate criticism when the people receive true information of all that government does.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933-1945)
Speech (1937-01-20), Inaugural Address, Washington, D.C.More info about this quote: wist.info/roosevelt-franklin-d…

#SCOTUS turned down a request to take up #Trump ally #SteveWynn's bid to upend the landmark NYT v. Sullivan #FreedomOfThePress precedent.
-
#SteveWynn's petition for appeal, which was made public by the court on Feb 4, asks #SCOTUS to assess "whether this court should overturn Sullivan’s actual-malice standard," as well as a related prior court decision.
At least 4 justices must vote to grant review for the court to hear an appeal. No date has been set for the justices to review or vote on whether to take up Wynn's case.

#SCOTUS in #NYTvSullivan & subsequent decisions set a standard that in order to win a #libel suit, a public figure must demonstrate the offending statement was made w/ "actual malice," meaning w/ knowledge it was false or with reckless disregard as to whether it was false.
That standard has since been adopted in a number of state laws across the country, including in Nevada.

#SteveWynn, the fmr CEO of Wynn Resorts & fmr finance chair of the #RNC, is appealing a decision by Nevada's top court to dismiss his #defamation suit against the #AssociatedPress & one of its #journalists. The court found Wynn failed to show a disputed 2018 news report containing allegations of #SexualAssault had been published w/ "actual malice."

The court established a stringent limit on #defamation claims by public figures more than 60 years ago in its New York Times v. Sullivan decision involving the U.S. Constitution's #FirstAmendment protections for freedom of speech & the press.

On Monday, he filed a consumer fraud suit against pollster J. #AnnSelzer & the #DesMoinesRegister over an outlier poll it ran showing #Trump trailing #Harris in the presidential race in Iowa, a conservative state that he went on to win by 13 percentage points. The complaint does not hinge on a #defamation claim—public figures must cross a high legal threshold to prove that they’ve been libeled—but rather a perceived violation of the state’s consumer protection statute.

#RCMP arbitrarily decides who's a #journalist & who isn’t & prevented journalists from #accessing sites of #Indigenous resistance. When #media fought back RCMP reduced those barriers only to #obstruct journalists’ ability to #document arrests. #Mounties have aimed guns at journalists. They’ve #arrested & #jailed #reporters for doing their job. These are #incursions on journalists’ & all #Canadians #ConstitutionalRight to a #FreePress 💥
