Publisher's Synopsis

This monograph argues that the crime of seditious libel in the USA has returned in the form of civil suits for libel that often take years to resolve and cost millions of dollars in lawyers' fees. The author calls for a complete rethinking not only of libel law but also of the role of the media.
