In the “Pentagon Papers” case (New York Times v. U.S.), the Supreme Court overruled an attempt by the federal government to censor the nation’s leading newspapers. The court so ruled primarily because:
a) all nine justices felt the First Amendment should never allow prior restraint of major newspapers; b) seven justices felt prior restraint should never be allowed; c) the government did not adequately prove that national security was in jeopardy in this particular case; d) the government dropped its attempt to censor the press before the Supreme Court could decide the case; e) the case arose in the summer and the nine justices didn’t want to interrupt their vacations.
