PLEASE HELP YE GET BRAINEST



Federal law requires that news agencies not publish or broadcast information that could threaten the security of the nation. However, the Constitution protects the right to free expression of ideas. Judges use past decisions on cases where the law and rights come into conflict to settle similar disputes. A reporter for a national news program is accused of breaking the law. The reporter wrote an article that disapproves of a new federal policy. U.S. officials say the article is unfair and too negative. They say it could upset people and lead some to break laws in protest. The reporter says that news writers have the right to free expression under the Constitution. The reporter also says that the article does not promote unlawful action. Is this a matter of constitutional, criminal, civil, or military law?

Is the source of the law a statute, regulation, case law, or a combination?
