It's been a good week to remember how much those of us who care about press freedom owe to messy cases involving messy people: J.M. Near, Larry Flynt, Fred Phelps & the despicable rest. It's the principles that matter.

Second best question so far from my book tour: "How did you write a hilarious book about a subject like the end of press freedom as we know it?" Topped only by the guy in Cambridge who asked why Putin shouldn't sue The NY Times for libel. https://t.co/L8FefOfqgk
