| Announcing New Book! |
Brian Anderson and Adam Thierer examine the serious threat
that free political speech is facing in their new book A Manifesto for Media Freedom.
Many people are working to stifle political discourse through media regulations and
campaign-finance reform under the guise of "fairness" but that in practice would
lead to a much less diverse and open media universe. A Manifesto for Media Freedom
serves as a wake-up call for all Americans about the growing danger to their freedom
to watch, listen, and read what they want.
