Lifelong Learning Lecture: The Revolutionary Legacy of the Free Press

Guest speaker: Dr. Joseph M. Adelman, Professor of History, Framingham State University

Since the ratification of the First Amendment in 1791, the Constitution has promised to safeguard “freedom of the press.” The meaning of the phrase has changed significantly as news media has grown and expanded from the weekly newspapers of the 18th century to the international corporations that own television and internet today. Explore the origins of the “free press” in the American Revolution and how those principles can protect the press today.
