Seventh Cir. Decides Against Student Newspaper's Freedom of Speech
Media Law Prof Blog reports on an important college newspaper free speech case (Seventh Circuit Decides Hosty: Finds Against Student Journalists).
In a 7-4 decision, the majority opinion written by Judge Easterbrook, the 7th Circuit has found in favor of appellant Patricia Carter and Governors State University, and against the student journalists who objected when, in 2001, Dean Carter told the student newspaper's printer to hold any issues she had not okayed in advance. The students objected that her actions violated their right to free speech and sued both her and the university.
