  • Every citizen's right to free

Every citizen's right to free speech is protected by the constitution in Rightonia, a democracy. Additionally, it places a responsibility on every citizen to refrain from spreading hate speech. A group of people recently viewed a statement Alex, a well-known journalist in Rightonia, made on his news programme as borderline hate speech. They asked the government to punish Alex for failing to uphold his civic obligation. Alex contends that he was simply expressing himself freely.

 

Which of the following concerns Alex's condition the most?

Option: 1

How many people viewed Alex's news programme at the time he made the contentious claim?


Option: 2

Does Rightonia's constitution clearly distinguish between free speech and hate speech?


Option: 3

 Has Alex previously made similar claims?


Option: 4

Did any other journalists suffer consequences for making similar claims?
