About this listen

In this episode of The Real Truth with Tommy Spina, Tommy speaks with Lee Levine, one of the nation’s leading First Amendment attorneys. Levine has practiced, taught, and written about First Amendment law for fifty years. He has argued on behalf of the press in courts nationwide, including the US Supreme Court. They discuss the role of a free press, legal protections for journalists, and the growing tension between government power and media accountability in today’s political climate. Their conversation comes at a time of renewed national attention on press rights, following recent reports of President Donald Trump threatening to subpoena or jail journalists over leaked information related to U.S. military operations in Iran.
