Prior restraint illustrates the principle of gatekeeping “like a gate on a channel, the intermediary gatekeeper allows some messages to get through and bar others” (238). In 1925 Minnesota legislature made an approval of a prior restraint law and it stated “obscene, lewd and lascivious or malicious, scandalous and defamatory publication was guilty of a nuisance and could be stopped by court order from further publication or distribution” (238).

  • Argumentative Essay On Morality

    1406 Words  | 6 Pages

    Being moral in a growing and continually changing world is no easy task, especially when there is no specific rules or guidelines to follow. If one were to ask specifically what is morality, Appiah would say that living a moral life is living an “eudaimonia,”(Aristotle) or the idea of highest good, normally translated into “happiness,” or “flourishing” (402). Living a life to the highest good is a very vague answer, considering everyone’s definition of good is different, and everyone has a different view of happiness. These opinions are so diverse because morality is not just one idea, but a mix of ideas that make up each person’s moral values. In these difference in morals, there is bound for someone getting hurt in some way, either physically, emotionally, or even spiritually.
