Although the constitution protects the freedom of speech for all citizens in the u. s., certain types of speech are not protected by the constitution. which of the following is a type of speech not protected in the constitution? select one: a. libel b. political protest c. newspaper editorials d. criticisms of political figures

While many Americans know that they have a right to free speech, the lay opinion often views the degree of protection afforded by the United State Constitution as much broader than it is in reality. The First Amendment does not protect all types of speech.

The First Amendment states that “Congress shall make no law . . . abridging the freedom of speech.” While it states “Congress,” the protections are also against state government and local public officials from making any law that abridges a person’s freedom of speech. However, simply because the government cannot make a law of this nature does not mean that individuals are free to say anything that they want to. For example, employers may prohibit certain types of speech that would not violate a person’s First Amendment rights if the employer was not a public employer.

So I believe the answers would either be B or C (:
