Question Presented (from Petition)

1. Was it wrong and a direct conflict with this Court when the Court of Appeals affirmed the District Court Decision that stated that News Agencies have a First Amendment right to hide the crimes of those in power and have no duty to hold those in power accountable if they wish to keep the crimes of those in power hidden from public scrutiny?

2. Can the victim of a crime hold the press liable for colluding by hiding the crimes by those in power?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether news agencies have a First Amendment right to hide crimes of those in power and avoid holding them accountable
