New York State Governor David Paterson yesterday signed the “Libel Terrorism Protection Act” (S.6687/A.9652), also known as Rachel’s Law. The legislation passed the state’s Assembly and Senate unanimously. Publishers Weekly reports Rachel Ehrenfeld hopes “other American authors will continue to expose what needs to be exposed and that publishers will not be shy in publishing it.”
This law belongs not only to Rachel Ehrenfeld but to us all, as Bruce Kesler aptly notes.
