Constantine reigned during the 4th century CE and is known for attempting to Christianize the Roman Empire. He made the persecution of Christians illegal by signing the Edict of Milan in 313 and helped spread the religion by bankrolling church-building projects, commissioning new copies of the Bible, and summoning councils of theologians to hammer out the religion's doctrinal kinks. Constantine was also responsible for a series of important secular reforms that ranged from reorganizing the Roman Empire's currency system to restructuring Rome's armed forces. His crowning achievement was his dedication of Constantinople as his new imperial capital in 330.
Libel
Publishing false statements knowingly is referred to as libel. This differs from slander which is defamation of character expressed verbally.
Though the US constitution contains an amendment protecting freedom of the press, this amendment does not protect people from false information. The Supreme Court has not allowed people to report false information in particular about individuals that ruin their reputation or defame their character to be protected by the First Amendment.
