Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University

21 Episodes

What happens when social media collides with the First Amendment? “Views on First” begins with arguably the most famous Twitter handle of all – @realdonaldtrump — and the Knight Institute’s groundbreaking lawsuit establishing that the First Amendment bars public officials from blocking critics from their social media accounts. Over the course of five episodes, host Evelyn Douek — legal scholar and a self-described content-moderation nerd — talks to guests from the tech industry, legal practice, and academia about some of the thorniest questions that arise when social media collides with the First Amendment.
