The U.S. has many laws designed to promote and protect the media. Which of the following is NOT an accurate description of U.S. laws? If a reporter wants to know who the President met with before making a decision, she can file a Freedom of Information request, and the President usually will have to turn over that information. All of these are accurate descriptions. Politicians cannot sue for defamation unless they can prove that a story was run knowing that it was false. If someone discloses information illegally to a newspaper, the newspaper can still publish the information in most cases. The media can run stories based upon anonymous sources and often will not be forced to disclose those sources
