Senate Working on New Shield Law

Since journalism, newspapers and media companies have morphed in the last 5 years, it might be time to write another shield law. I mean, it isn’t like that First Amendment to the US Constitution would cover that. (If we haven’t destroyed the Bill of Rights beyond recognition already.)

“On Sept. 12, the Senate Judiciary Committee approved just such a bill by a 13 to 5 vote. The Free Flow of Information Act would shield anyone associated or once associated with a news-gathering operation — including freelancers, student reporters and bloggers — who is working with the intent to convey information on important matters to the public.” [Benton]

“The shield bill, which is called the “Free Flow of Information Act,” would create a new federal privilege for reporters to protect confidential sources,” according to Benton.
