Court Asked to Uphold Press Freedom
Washington AP asks Supreme Court to preserve press freedom in reporting public events and overturn a 500000 libel ruling against the AP over Maj. Gen. Edwin A. Walker. Walker’s 1962 Oxford riot actions are debated with his attorney denying AP charges of leading the crowd while asserting the press may lie.
