The marketplace of ideas metaphor they developed has been invoked constantly by Supreme Court justices in First Amendment cases. It has achieved genuine load-bearing legal significance, particularly in certain arenas of free speech law, and over-arching significance in rendering the entire architecture of modern free speech law reasonably coherent and stable. This essay explores the importance of the marketplace metaphor in three discrete areas of modern free speech law: commercial speech, political campaign finance, and tort liability. While by no means the only arenas in which the marketplace metaphor has exerted important influence, these three exemplars are especially illuminating, exposing at once the strengths and weaknesses of the marketplace metaphor as a persuasive tool for ordering free speech doctrines. The essay then examines the marketplace metaphor from a wide-angle lens, making the argument that it operates to define two of the central continental divides of modern free speech law. The essay goes a long way toward providing a descriptively clear and normatively convincing account of free speech law as it currently stands.","PeriodicalId":42622,"journal":{"name":"Communication Law and Policy","volume":"24 1","pages":"437 - 475"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2019-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10811680.2019.1660552","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41457709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The issue in National Institute of Family and Life Advocates v. Becerra was the constitutionality of a California law requiring pregnancy-related clinics to provide information to clients about abortion rights and services. Writing for the five-member majority, Justice Clarence Thomas found the law unconstitutional because, in part, “When the government polices the content of professional speech, it can fail to ‘preserve an uninhibited marketplace of ideas in which truth will ultimately prevail.’” Professionals might have a number of goodfaith disagreements, Justice Thomas wrote, and government interference by requiring some professionals to disseminate certain messages, runs counter to the notion that “‘[t]he best test of truth is the power of the thought to get itself accepted in the competition of the market.’” Writing in dissent, Justice Anthony Kennedy took issue with the use of the marketplace of ideas to suppress information. The marketplace, he wrote, “is fostered, not hindered, by providing information to patients to enable them to make fully informed medical decisions in respect to their pregnancies.” In its most recent application of the marketplace theory, therefore, as has happened many times in the past, both sides found solace in the marketplace of ideas, demonstrating that the theory is arguably the most enduring, most powerful and most versatile of any theory called upon by the Court. Justices have referenced the marketplace of ideas theory hundreds of times since its 1919 emergence as part of free speech","PeriodicalId":42622,"journal":{"name":"Communication Law and Policy","volume":"24 1","pages":"433 - 435"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2019-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10811680.2019.1660551","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48852748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, new technology and communication patterns have opened fissures in public opinion about the limits of free expression while also creating new legal risks for citizen-communicators. This article suggests that universities need to recalibrate their curricula to meet the exigencies of this moment, which should include an increased emphasis on media law and policy courses and initiatives. The article outlines a rationale for action, and some strategies, based on the need to: (1) expand citizens’ expressive agency by equipping them with the knowledge to shield themselves from overt restraints and subtle forms of coercion; (2) deepen citizens’ civics knowledge, enhance their political efficacy and enable their political participation; (3) facilitate citizens’ engagement in reemerging debates about the meaning and scope of the First Amendment; and (4) spur citizen involvement in confronting pressing constitutional and media policy issues whose resolution will ultimately shape the broader balance of social power.","PeriodicalId":42622,"journal":{"name":"Communication Law and Policy","volume":"24 1","pages":"271 - 306"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2019-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10811680.2019.1586407","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44696111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Efforts to bring some consistency to federal law through the passage of a shield law have stalled while journalists face new threats because of the vulnerability of their communications to discovery and monitoring by third parties. Also, the entry of non-professional communicators into the news ecosystem is causing courts to reevaluate and redefine long-standing protections. This article proposes four ways that sources could be better protected from unmasking without the passage of a shield law: improving whistleblower laws to better protect people who report illegal or unethical actions to the media; vastly reducing the number of government secrets to make “leaking” less attractive or necessary; changing legal strategy to focus on protecting the anonymity of sources instead of the rights of journalists to keep secrets; and more widespread and intelligent use of encrypted applications and software could all improve the security of journalistic sources. Because of the complexity of amending multiple whistleblower protection laws and changing the government’s document classification system, the article argues that the best solutions may be to persuade news organizations to change legal tactics and to use better encryption technology.","PeriodicalId":42622,"journal":{"name":"Communication Law and Policy","volume":"24 1","pages":"145 - 189"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2019-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10811680.2019.1586405","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43146160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
