This was how it was with travel: one city gives you gifts, another robs you. One gives you the heart’s affections, the other destroys your soul.

I would say that the Pentagon Papers case of 1971 - in which the government tried to block the The New York Times and The Washington Post that they obtained from a secret study of how we got involved in the war in Vietnam - that is probably the most important case. ↗
