Press Release: Judge rules in favor of 02138

Statement from 02138 President and Founder Bom Kim: The judge ruled to deny the request to take down the source documents for the article “Poking Facebook” from the 02138 Web site. This is a victory not only for 02138, but for the First Amendment. We felt we had a very important responsibility and we hope we were able to promote greater public understanding of the origins of a powerful and influential Web site. The judge found that this was “core journalism” and the original documents add to the transparency and offer an opportunity to increase unfiltered access and an opportunity for readers to have more information on which to evaluate what the story reports.
