Earlier this week, we joined a coalition of over 100 journalists, rights organizations, academics, and advocates in sending a letter demanding that Paramount Skydance CEO David Ellison publicly condemn President Donald Trump’s unconstitutional ban on CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House, and commit to fully backing litigation to stop the ban should his company come to own CNN.

Punishing news organizations for unfavorable coverage is, without a doubt, unconstitutional censorship, as the courts have recently and repeatedly confirmed. It's also the act of a petty despot. Thin-skinned autocrats have no place in a healthy, free democracy.

As an organization defending freedom of speech, thought, and inquiry, we condemn the decision to blacklist Macklemore from certain large music venues because of his political expression.
Large venues have immense cultural power to determine the limits of speech and opinion in public spaces. While private stadium venues and their owners have a legal right to control the speech on their stages, wielding that power as a political litmus test erodes the values of a free democracy.

NCAC condemns President Trump’s latest attack on the protected expression of a civil society group, this time in the form of a legal threat against the Center for American Progress (CAP) for its publication of a report disproving the President’s claims about the correlation between National Guard deployment and decreased crime rates. Last week, the New York Times reported that President Trump’s personal lawyer sent a letter to CAP warning of a $5 billion defamation lawsuit if the organization does not retract its report. Read why this is an alarming intrusion of First Amendment rights, and our full statement, here: https://ncac.org/news/trump-legal-threat-center-american-progress
