Popular Article: Freedom of Speech

Milton's Areopagitica written in defense of freedom of speech

Freedom of speech is the ability to speak without censorship or limitation. Also called freedom of expression, it refers not only to verbal speech but any act of communicating information or ideas, including publications, broadcasting, art, advertising, film, and the Internet. Freedom of speech and freedom of expression are closely related to the concepts of freedom of thought and conscience. The right to freedom of speech is recognized today as a fundamental human right under Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and is enshrined in international human rights law in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and various regional human rights documents.

-Today, computer and internet encyclopedias have largely replaced print encyclopedias. The most popular online encyclopedia, ''Wikipedia'' has  stunned the world; and as a leading force in the open source revolution has shaken assumptions regarding knowledge and scholarship to their very roots.  Some have challenged its reliability because of its policy to let anyone contribute to it, but it has stood up remarkably to tests and comparisons to conventional sources such as the ''Encyclopedia Britannica''.
