Not all speech is protected by the First Amendment. The Supreme Court and the states have decided that there are restrictions to free speech. In 1919, the Supreme Court decided that someone may not yell "fire" in a crowded theater just to be funny. The first amendment protects freedom of the press, which means that newspapers, newscasts, magazines and journals can report on negative information about an event or individual, as long as they are truthful. But they can’t print something false about someone else—libel and slander—though laws about this differ from state to state. States also regulate obscene speech.

Based on the passage, which of the following actions is protected by the First Amendment?

A
A commentator swears during a live television broadcast.

B
A person threatens to harm their neighbor.

C
A newspaper prints a critical but truthful report about a congressperson.

D
A sports fan shouts "bomb!" in a crowded stadium as a joke.
