Clarence Thomas calls for review of landmark libel case
Jacob Weisberg, S. Mitra Kalita, and Charles Blow join John Avlon to discuss Justice Clarence Thomas' call for a reconsideration of New York Times v. Sullivan. Kalita describes the 1964 ruling as a crucial civil rights era decision that enabled journalists to hold powerful figures accountable. Weisberg says he doesn't think a reexamination of the case is "plausible."
