Congressional Power and Free Speech: Levy's Legacy RevisitedWilliam W. Van AlstyneWilliam & Mary Law School 1986 Harvard Law Review, Vol. 99, p. 1089, 1986 William & Mary Law School Research Paper No. 09-148 Abstract: This review concerns an update to Leonard Levy’s controversial book "Legacy of Suppression: Freedom of Speech and Press in Early American History." While Levy maintains the same thesis that early American newspapers did not enjoy the robust freedoms commonly protected by the First Amendment, the updated research actually seems to soften this stark stance and sets the thesis at odds with the evidence.
