(Los Angeles Times) Maura Dolan - The U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals decided 2-1 Wednesday that the King County Metro system in Seattle did not violate free speech rights by refusing to accept an anti-Israel advertisement. The Metro system first accepted and then rejected an advertisement that called on the U.S. to stop funding Israel after pro-Israel groups decided to submit their own ads. The county decided that no advertising related to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict would be permitted. Judge Paul J. Watford wrote: "Municipalities faced with the prospect of having to accept virtually all political speech if they accept any - regardless of the level of disruption caused - will simply close the forum to political speech altogether." The majority of judges concluded that no reasonable jury would find discrimination because the county rejected all ads related to the controversy.2015-03-27 00:00:00Full Article
