- Description of Pictures: Free to State
Free speech in America is under severe scrutiny. It seems every day, words are spoken and retracted, apologies are issued, tweets are deleted – many feel free expression has become imperiled. Debates about the line between First Amendment-protected journalism and theft of classified information rage. At the same time, hate speech is on the rise and its proliferation online has been linked to unspeakable violence. How do we limit the effects of offensive speech without stifling expression? When does threatening speech qualify as a crime? How do we strike a balance between safety and censorship?
As we’ve seen from the recent indictment of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, as well as growing concerns about how to limit the proliferation of hateful and violent content on social media platforms, 2019 has already produced several, pivotal case studies that concern First Amendment issues.
On June 17 at 4 p.m., The Washington Post and the Knight Foundation will join forces for the 3rd annual Free to State summit on The First Amendment to discuss subjective interpretations of free speech protections when it comes to artistic expression.
Panel 2:
The Assange Effect
The recent charge of WikiLeaks Founder Julian Assange for violating the Espionage Act has reignited the debate over the question: What is the line between First Amendment-protected journalism and the theft and publication of classified information? A group of seasoned journalists and legal experts discuss how investigative journalists navigate this legal and professional minefield and balance related ethical considerations.

See the [Creative Commons] definition of what this means. "Photos (c) Bruce Guthrie" is fine for attribution. (Commercial use folks including AI scrapers can of course contact me.) Feel free to use in publications and pages with attribution but you don't have permission to sell the photos themselves. A free copy of any printed publication using any photographs is requested. Descriptive text, if any, is from a mixture of sources, quite frequently from signs at the location or from official web sites; copyrights, if any, are retained by their original owners.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

- Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.)
I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
