In '' Miami Herald Publishing Co. v. Tornillo'', 418 U.S. 241, 258 (1974) a unanimous [[U.S. Supreme Court]] invalidated a right-of-reply state statute that required newspapers to print the reply of a candidate for public office whose personal character has been criticized by that newspaper's editorials.

The [[First Amendment]] erects a virtually insurmountable barrier between government and the print media so far as government tampering, in advance of publication, with news and editorial content is concerned.

Justices [[William Brennan]] and [[William Rehnquist]] concurred to emphasize that this holding did not affect "right of retraction" statutes that require newspapers to retract errors.
