Question
though the outcomes of schenck and new york times differed, what did these decisions have in common?○ the government has a heavy burden to prove harm.○ the government can limit speech that causes harm.○ the government has unlimited power to limit speech.○ the government must follow the first amendment.
Schenck v. US established the "clear and present danger" test, allowing speech restriction when it causes imminent harm. New York Times Co. v. US (Pentagon Papers case) upheld press freedom but acknowledged narrow government power to limit speech for national security harm. Both rulings recognize the government's authority to restrict speech that causes specific harm, while rejecting unlimited power. The heavy burden to prove harm applies to the New York Times case, not Schenck, and the First Amendment is not an absolute mandate in either.
