A blogger publishes secret national security information.

A legislator gives a speech criticizing American military policy.

A newspaper publishes its opinion about the President’s job performance.

A TV reporter broadcasts an interview with a convicted criminal.

Answer 1

The correct answer is A. A blogger publishes secret national security information.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the United States, freedom of speech is an important right protected by the First Amendment and many local or minor laws. This includes protection to individuals for communicating facts and information to the general public, conveying their opinion about issues, and using media to communicate without being restricted or punished.

However, this right has some limitations such as using freedom of speech to hurt others or reveling information related to national security as this can threaten certain aspects of general society. This implies the activity that is not protected by the constitutional right of free expression is "A blogger publishes secret national security information" because this activity is related to national security information.

Answer 2

The correct answer is A) A blogger publishes secret national security information.

Each of these activities is protected by the constitutional right of free expression except a blogger publishes secret national security information.

The constitutional right of free expression can be found in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that was signed in December 1791, as part of the Bill of Rights. The amendment prohibits the government from creating laws that establish any kind of religion or dogma and prohibits the free exercise of religion. The First Amendment also prohibits the government to interfere with the freedom of speech, the freedom of the press, and the right to assemble in a peaceful way.
