Ed Fitzpatrick has emailed to correct my impression that he would prefer the Supreme Court to make a narrow ruling that bans Hillary: the Movie: “I am totally against banning this film.”
I had read the “narrow ruling” sentence as suggesting one that would ensnare this movie without enabling the broad control that the cited government lawyer claims for campaign finance reform legislation. Fitzpatrick meant it more generally, as “one that wouldn’t have big implications for other cases, such as scuttling McCain-Feingold or setting a horrible precedent for 1st Amendment law.”
