Free Speech in the Next Generation
Here is a scary story from the USA Today.
One in three U.S. high school students say the press ought to be more restricted, and even more say the government should approve newspaper stories before readers see them, according to a survey being released today.
The survey of 112,003 students finds that 36% believe newspapers should get “government approval” of stories before publishing; 51% say they should be able to publish freely; 13% have no opinion.
UPDATE: More on this from CNN.
… when told of the exact text of the First Amendment, more than one in three high school students said it goes “too far” in the rights it guarantees. Only half of the students said newspapers should be allowed to publish freely without government approval of stories.
I read somewhere today, and I can’t remember where, a blogger suggesting that these kids get locked up for having spoken out freely on this issue, and see if that impacts their thinking.
