CNN: SCOTUS Rules in Favor of Cheerleader in Student Freedom of Speech Case

‘The Supreme Court this morning saying that the school district violated her 1st Amendment rights by kicking her off the team’

EXCERPT:

SCHNEIDER: “Yeah, this is a hot button case here that focuses on these free speech issues in this age of social media. You remember this case. It was about this cheerleader from Pennsylvania who issued a profanity latent Snapchat message. She was subsequently kicked off the cheerleading team for one year. The Supreme Court this morning saying that the school district violated her 1st Amendment rights by kicking her off the cheerleading team, basically saying that this was off-campus speech and as off-campus speech could not be regulated by the school here. This is an 8-1 decision.”
