Free Press for Comic Books
Does the First Amendment's protection of the free press include crime and horror comic books aimed at children? These comic books were some of the more than 600 collected by the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Juvenile Delinquency during a 1954 investigation to determine if such comics contributed to youth crime. Although the Senate considered censoring this kind of publication, ultimately it proposed no corresponding bill.
