Brainstorming

I honestly have no idea what topic to do for this assignment. I feel like a lot of the topics we have to choose from (abortion laws, gun laws, gay marriage rights, etc.) are extremely similar to the laws we are currently writing in government class, so I feel like I've already said everything I've wanted to say about those issues. There is one thing, though, I feel like we haven't covered in government class and it is something I feel extremely passionate about, and that is censorship in media. I'm a firm believer in freedom of expression, and I feel like the government being able to censor what is in the media is in complete violation of the first amendment. At the same time, though, there is a line that I think all Americans should not cross when it comes to freedom of expression, such as using slander to commit hate crimes. I think doing my research project on censorship in media would be interesting because journalism is something I really want to pursue, and I want to determine for myself where the line should be drawn between what is appropriate and what's not.
