First Amendment pressure points?

This week we'll chat with Zachary Price, constitutional scholar and UC Hastings College of the Law Professor, about his forthcoming law review article Our Imperiled Absolutist First Amendment. Price traces our free speech doctrine's historically-determined rise to near-absolutist dimension, and wonders whether the vexing contemporary problems of fake news, hateful rhetoric, and terrorism could find doctrinal pressure points causing a reversal in the trend.

We'll also hear from Blaine Evanson, litigation partner with Gibson Dunn & Crutcher, who will unpack the week's biggest SCOTUS cert grant in U.S. v. Microsoft.
