Across the political spectrum, news media face both praise and criticism. Some argue that the government should play a larger role in ensuring that news outlets avoid perceived bias. Others contend that in a diverse media environment, the remedy for speech one disagrees with is simply more speech. What role, if any, should the government play in addressing public concerns about news content? When does oversight become overreach? And do the distinct legal standards that apply to broadcast stations still make sense in today’s media landscape? Join leaders in journalism, academia, law, and public policy for a conversation exploring these questions and the evolving relationship between the First Amendment, government authority, and the news media.
