They may also perform free speech without censorship or restraints. In the article entitled "UC Berkeley gears up for Ben Shapiro speech as test run ahead of Milo Yiannopoulos talk", published by Emily Deruy on  September 11, 2017 at 3:52 pm, talks about how a Conservative commentator risks the campus UC Berkeley of having another riot. Ben Shapiro is said to speck Thursday,September 14,2017 and has been threatened to be shut down by a group that calls themselves "Refuse Fascism". Ironically the speech is about how free speech and how people should not protest against one's beliefs as it's a constitutional right. Police are said to protect students rights at attending his speech without being stopped by protesters. This article describes the first amendment as it describes people violating people's first amendment right.

This has been an ongoing debate as some are wondering if "fake news" should be considered freedom of the press. In the article "Hurricane Irma: Not everybody falls for fake news", it shows how a fake facebook live video showed fake footage of Hurricane Irma and fooled a lot of people up to news sources. This came in a debate as people wondered if this is even considered real news or freedom of the press. People are even posting fake photos from other storms claiming it's the after math of Hurricane Irma. This even fooled the director of social for trump who later deleted the tweet of a fake photo of hurricane Irma.

Voltaire summarized this amendment best when he stated, "I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it." In the article entitled, "Steve Bannon to speak at 'Free Speech Week' event at UC Berkeley", it discusses a peaceful event of certain conservative speakers to attend this event. However this event has gotten many threats to be shut down just because people disagree with their views. Anyone with knowledge of the bill of rights knows that it is every citizens right to peacefully assemble and is not against the law. People's first amendment right of freedom of assembly is being violated here because they are not be given the same opportunity to assemble. A famous speaker to attend the event is Steve Bannon, who thinks it's ironic how a "free speech event" is getting threatened and not allowing them to express their rights.
