The constitutional issue of freedom of the press was debated constantly after the release of the Pentagon Papers. The Pentagon Papers were a series of top secret documents that were only supposed to be seen by members of the federal government. However, these documents were leaked to the New York Times and Washington Post thanks to Daniel Ellsberg.
