Press freedom? Paging Lee Levine!

Press freedom? Paging Lee Levine!

Join The Daily Pennsylvanian Alumni Association to hear legendary First Amendment lawyer (and DP legal counsel) Lee Levine discuss his new book, “In Bad Faith: Earl Caldwell and the Fight for a Free Press.” In this real-life thriller, Levine describes how, in 1970, a Black New York Times reporter covering the civil rights movement refused to tell a grand jury what he had learned about the Black Panther Party. The resulting Supreme Court case still resonates in today’s discussions of freedom of the press.
