Parody of Public Figures: Hustler Magazine V. Falwell (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781627123914)

These immortal words from the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution ran into quite a challenge when the Reverend Jerry Falwell sued Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt for publishing a mock advertisement in his magazine describing Falwell as engaging in an incestuous act with his mother. In this book, award-winning author Susan Dudley Gold shows readers how the case got all the way to the Supreme Court, where the right to parody public figure and the First Amendment were upheld. Gold explains the controversial decision in a narrative that is both informative and highly entertaining.
