Knight Foundation invests $60 million to protect digital free speech
It's getting tough to be a journalist these days with the First Amendment seemingly encroached from all sides. That's why the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation is granting Columbia University $60 million to create the Knight First Amendment Institute (FAI). The FAI will be tasked with preserving and expanding 1st Amendment protections. It will act as "a primary, durable and influential advocate of free expression in the digital age", according to a release from the Knight Foundation.
