Should you be able to say and do whatever you want online? And if not, who should police this?
More Perfect hosts a debate at WNYC's Jerome L. Greene Performance Space about online hate speech, fake news and whether the First Amendment needs an update for the digital age.
The key voices:
•Corynne McSherry, legal director at the Electronic Frontier Foundation
•Elie Mystal, executive editor at Above the Law and contributing legal editor at More Perfect
•Ken White, litigator and criminal defense attorney at Brown White & Osborn LLP (he also runs https://www.popehat.com)
The key cases:
Yates v. United States (1957)
Brandenburg v. Ohio (1969)
NOTE: Because of the topic, this discussion includes disturbing images and language, such as religious, ethnic and gender slurs and profanity. We have preserved this content so that our audience can understand the nature of this speech.
ADDENDUM: During the debate one of debaters misspoke and said World War II when he meant World War I. The case he was referring to can be found here: oyez.org/cases/1900-1940/249us47
