Today, Freedom of the press is not explicitly protected in Iceland’s [[Probable year:: 1944]] Constitution. However, Article 73’s protections for freedom of expression extend to the press: “Everyone shall be free to express his thoughts, but shall also be liable to answer for them in court. The law may never provide for censorship or other similar limitations to freedom of expression” (Constitute Project, “Iceland's Constitution of [[Probable year:: 1944]] with Amendments through [[Probable year:: 2013]]” ). 1849 1944 2013 2396393.5 2431090.5 2456293.5 What is the oldest written source in this country that mentions this right? 2022-12-28T22:18:41Z 2459942.4296412 Freedom of the Press/History/Country sources/Iceland Page name 102 en Page name
