Topic 3.4
How does Prior Restraint differ from Content Neutrality in terms of First Amendment guarantees?
Both refer exclusively to restrictions on press freedom.
Prior Restraint concerns government censorship before expression happens, while Content Neutrality prohibits the government from favoring certain expressions over others.
Content Neutrality allows for censorship during war times; Prior Restraint doesn't.
Prior Restraint applies only to written media; Content Neutrality applies to all forms of media.
