Summary

Banned in the Media : A Reference Guide to Censorship in the Press, Motion Pictures, Broadcasting and the Internet
     by Foerstel, Herbert N.

Terms of use

In a sequel to his 1994 "Banned in the U. S. A.", free-speech advocate and retired librarian Foerstel looks at each of the six media in turn and finds a tiered structure of First Amendment protection with print media having the most protection, broadcast the lowest, and the Internet carving out a niche of its own. He also samples incidents of censorship from US history for each medium, analyzes landmark US Supreme Court cases chronologically, and interviews major figures from each medium.
