Two COASTers make national news on same day

COAST "Tweets" Complaint and Mark Miller featured NYT.

This morning, we were greeted with this from the New York Times featuring the important litigation, COAST v. Ohio Elections Commission.  This is possibly COAST's most important piece of First Amendment litigation, challenging the jurisdiction of the Ohio Elections Commission in "false speech" cases.  As Mike DeWine's Amicus Brief in the very case he is defending (bravery!) tells us, the statute and the OEC process is terribly misused to chill legitimate and entirely truthful political speech.


Roseann Siderits featured in the Wall Street Journal
Then, an hour later, we saw this video on WSJ.Com with Roseann Siderits doing her grass roots work for Presidential candidate Rick Santorum in West Chester.

COAST would note that it put its better foot forward with Roseann Siderits in video and Mark in print, and we will leave it at that.
