I try to do that in this book without preaching - to try to do as you just said that you really have to defend the First Amendment rights of everybody.
我试图在这本书中做到这一点,而不是说教——正如你刚才所说,你必须捍卫每个人的第一修正案权利。
But I know newspapers. They have the first amendment and they can tell any lie knowing it's a lie and they're protected if the person's famous or it's a company.
但我知道报纸。他们有第一修正案,他们可以说谎,知道这是一个谎言,他们受到保护,如果这个人是名人或公司。
It just seems to be a human trait to want to protect the speech of people with whom we agree. For the First Amendment, that is not good enough. So it is really important that we protect First Amendment rights of people no matter what side of the line they are on.
想要保护与我们意见一致的人的言论似乎是人类的一种特性。对于第一修正案来说,这还不够好。因此,保护第一修正案赋予人们的权利是非常重要的,无论他们站在哪一边。
