“The liberty of the press is essential to the security of freedom in a state; it ought not, therefore, to be restricted in this commonwealth.”

The "liberty" of the press — once meant that a despotic government would not interfere with independent expressions of observed accuracy. Today's press (MSM — being a forth {4th} branch of government) does not comport itself within such original meaning. Currently, "the press" is/are theocratic propagators on a mission to convert those not in agreement with the national establishment of religion (by example, the term "right(s)" is misused to advance the god Moloch's dogmas)

My goodness, how far Massachusetts has fallen...
