Background: You have read about “National Security and the Pentagon Papers.” To reinforce the readings you watched a film in class on the story and development of the pentagon papers.
Assignment: Using all the information you have, write a critical analysis of the events and consequences of the publication of the Pentagon papers in the New York Times. In the analysis you should highlight:
(a) The impact of the publication for justice in a democratic and civil society
(b) The principal values were either eroded or affirmed with the publication
(c) The publication’s impact on the constitutional strength of the first amendment

Pentagon Papers
The paper should be no less and no more than 2 (TWO) typewritten pages written in APA style.
