A riveting introduction to the crucial role of First Amendment rights and the media Guardians of Liberty explores the essential and basic American ideal of freedom of the press. Allowing the American press to publish—even if what they’re reporting is contentious— without previous censure or interference by the federal government was so important to the Founding Fathers that they placed a guarantee in the First Amendment to the Constitution. Citing numerous examples from America’s past, from the American Revolution to the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights Movement to Obama’s and Trump’s presidencies, Linda Barrett Osborne shows how freedom of the press has played an essential role in the growth of this nation, allowing democracy to flourish. She further discusses how the freedoms of press and speech often work side by side, reveals the diversity of American news, and explores why freedom of the press is still imperative to uphold today.

Guardians of Liberty traces America's response to the waves of evil poised to break upon the world during the 20th century. When false philosophical doctrines spawned two wars in Europe, the nation's neutrality turned to resolve in the face of blatant provocations. Once aroused, America quickly mobilized her people and the might of her industrial resources to defeat the enemy, restoring freedom to her allies. Then when international communism threatened to enslave the vulnerable, America stood in the gap, forcing its retreat and eventual collapse, delivering millions from its grip. Since then America has continued to preserve her leading role as a beacon of freedom to the world.
