Read this excerpt from the Supreme Court's Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier majority
faust18 [17]

Answer:

D. Young people have civil liberties, but not to the same degree as  adults.

Explanation:

In the court case of Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier, the Supreme Court decided in favor of the school's decision to censor or omit the pages that seem to be too extreme for the students. The case brought into mind the freedom of the press, especially the freedom to express oneself freely.

The case revolves around the journalism class where the students had written about pregnancy and divorce which the school decided to omit from the whole journal. They took the two pages out from the whole journal and let the rest be published. The school's motive was to prevent the students from learning the true identity of the persons and also prevent the other younger students from reading such inappropriate stories. This act also brings to the fore the issue of the press freedom which seems to be that even though everyone seems to have the same rights, school children have the lesser authority or right over what they can express or write about as compared to the adults.
