@briansol,
Quote:The Sedition Act (official title: An Act for the Punishment of Certain Crimes against the United States) made it a crime to publish "false, scandalous, and malicious writing" against the government or its officials. Enacted July 14, 1798, with an expiration date of March 3, 1801.
That act was also called the Sedition Act, so I was correct in calling it that.
But it was supprted by John Adams. That means he doesn't always agree with the Founding Fathers.
