Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The New York Times v. United States case, also known as the Pentagon Papers case, affirmed the no-prior-restraint doctrine, meaning the government cannot prevent the press from publishing information unless it presents a clear and present danger to national security. Therefore, option A is the correct choice as it accurately describes the ruling of the case. Option E is incorrect because the case did not punish the New York Times for publishing the papers.
