Many Americans have heard of the term “diplomatic immunity,” a form of legal immunity that guarantees that foreign diplomats are given safe passage in our country and generally not susceptible to lawsuits or prosecution (although they can be expelled).
Also, under Article I, Section 6 of the U.S. Constitution, our own federally elected senators and representatives are “privileged from arrest during their attendance at the session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same, and for any speech or debate in either House,” with exceptions made for “treason, felony and breach of the peace.”
What about America’s liberal media elite? Do they, too, have some sort of legal immunity? Not technically as there are no laws or constitutional provisions that specifically exempt progressive elitist members of the press from legal prosecution.
However, author Katie Pavlich, news editor of the conservative TownHall.com news and opinion web site, says they might as well have immunity because they get away with criminal behavior that would likely land ordinary citizens behind bars all too often.
