US Freedom of Expression and Media Round Up – 30 September 2010

We begin this week with the US Supreme Court.  In its new term – with a new justice, Elena Kagan – and a “docket” which includes a number of cases which give rise to freedom of expression and privacy issues.  First in line, due to be heard on 6 October 2010, is the controversial case of Snyder v Phelps. We have previously discussed this case which began after the Westboro Baptist Church organized a protest at the funeral of U.S. Marine Matthew Snyder, who was killed in the line of duty. 

Inforrm – more of our popular posts

Last week we had a post listing the top twenty Inforrm blog posts of all time.  This enabled newer readers to revisit some of the popular posts from earlier in the year.  We have had a lot of hits on these and we thought it might be of interest to provide a further list, setting out some more of the most popular posts – this time numbers 20 to 40 on the Word Press List from our first 8 months.
