Subpoenas and Gag Orders Rise Threatening Press Freedom
Reporters face increased subpoenas and contempt citations to reveal sources. From January to April this year courts issued at least 56 subpoenas, with gag orders climbing from two in 1966 to 28 in 1974, threatening news gathering. The Reporters Committee on Freedom of the Press launches a two year fund to support legal defense, research, and information sharing to defend First Amendment rights. CBS president Arthur R. Taylor calls for a centralized clearinghouse to inform the public of legal threats and aid media in court battles.
