Comic First Amendment Relief

This article is absolutely hilarious. Total MUST READ! The way the name has been changed to "hmmm*" is one of the best things I've ever seen in a political article. The to do's and not to do's are relatable but still used in a comic manner. Don't talk about Aux Cords during First Amendment week?!? Why? But why not! The idea of a week dedicated to free speech adoration is great too!

Supreme Justice Against the First Amendment

https://www.wgbh.org/news/commentary/2019/02/20/clarence-thomas-wants-to-eviscerate-the-first-amendment

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is Presidents Trump's first ally in his fight against freedom of the press. It's very alarming that people with so much power want to turn the clock back all the way to a "pre-civil rights era." The First Amendment is first for a reason, because it is arguably the most important. Reversing a court decision that sets a precedent based on the First Amendment would have ginormous consequences. What made this article even more interesting is the notion that this opinion appeared as if out of the blue. It is shocking that an opinion such as this one could lie dormant for so long.

MY TOP 5 NEWS SOURCES

While it seems rather dumb, the fastest way news gets to me anymore is through snapchat. The semi-recent update made it possible for me to subscribe to news completely changed the sources I looked at at how often I looked at them. With news right there in an app I was already using quite frequently, I was reading a lot more news, a lot more often.

CNN
Whenever my parents send me news articles, they are always from CNN. This just led to my affinity for their brand of news. While I am aware of the stigmas surrounding CNN in the current political world, I always tend to agree with the opinion, if there is one, of the articles posted here.

NY TIMES
In my humble opinion, The New York Times is always a go to. Especially after studying the political bias of news outlets in a prior class, I like the New York Times because it is always placed somewhere in the middle. They also are always one of the first news outlets to put out stories which also makes me like them due to the fact that I want information at the tough of my fingers tips ASAP.

WALL STREET JOURNAL
The Wall Street Journal is one of my many subscriptions on Snapchat. To be completely honest, this has only become one of my go to news outlets because on its sheer easiness to access in the app!

WOMENS MARCH
Ever since signing up, and traveling to the Women's March in Washington D.C. my senior year of high school, I have gotten daily emails from this site. It quickly became a website I enjoyed reading because of the empowering nature of a lot of stories posted on the site and sent out in emails.

ABC NEWS
ABC news has always been a favorite of mine because it is owned by Disney. In high school, I was convinced that I would be on Good Morning America on day, which is when I really started religiously following ABC news. I like the stories they report on, and its always good to read stories that interest you!
