题目信息
The First Amendment prevents the government from violating a person's right to free speech. But it does not protect government employees from disciplinary action for all statements they make in the course of their official duties. However, laws should protect them in cases in which employees bring to light information that advances the public interest in honest government and the rule of law.
Which of the following would provide the best example for the argument above?
A:An employee of the Central Intelligence Agency reveals classified information to a foreign government.
B:A movie star loses popularity because a studio employee tells a magazine about the star's troubled personal life.
C:An energy company`s stock plunges after an employee publicizes its accounting records.
D:A prominent plastic surgeon loses her license after an employee sues her for malpractice after she operates on him.
E:A Congressional aide reveals cases of bribery in the House of Representatives.

正确答案:
E:A Congressional aide reveals cases of bribery in the House of Representatives.
大意是:美国宪法第一修正案保障了公民的自由言论不受政府的影响;但是政府工作人员在工作时发表的言论若涉及处分是不受保护的(比如在白宫发言人在发言的时候吧);但是法律应当保护他们,因为他们可能会为了公民对于廉政的希望着想而揭露一些信息。题目问举个例子,e说的就是一个国会助理揭发众议院行贿。
