Trump v. The Press (with Erwin Chemerinsky)What happens to a free press when a president takes steps that could discourage critical coverage? This week on the Insider podcast, Preet is joined by Erwin Chemerinsky, constitutional law expert and Dean of the UC Berkeley School of Law, while Joyce is out. In an excerpt from the conversation, they discuss the Trump administration’s record on the First Amendment, including lawsuits against media organizations and restrictive guidelines on journalists at the Pentagon.
In the full episode, Preet and Erwin discuss:
– Supreme Court oral arguments in a case that could give a president more power to fire government officials;
– The New York Times’s lawsuit challenging the Trump administration’s new press policy at the Pentagon;
– President Trump’s threat to sue the BBC over an edited video of him; and
– Legal challenges to state laws mandating that the Ten Commandments be displayed in public school classrooms.
