Yet, in 1960, a city official in Montgomery, Alabama, sued The New York Times for libeland was awarded $500,000 by a local jurybecause the paper had published an ad critical of Montgomery's brutal response to civil rights protests.The centuries of legal precedent behind the Sullivan case and the U.S. Supreme Court's historic reversal of the original verdict are expertly chronicled in this gripping and wonderfully readable book by the Pulitzer Prize Pulitzer Prizewinning legal journalist Anthony Lewis.
