  • allowing collateral attack on an injunction in contempt proceeding for violating that injunction where it was a \transparently invalid prior restraint on pure speech\
  • a prior restraint \issued prior to a full and fair hearing ... faces an even heavier presumption of invalidity.\
  • “If a publisher is to print a libelous, defamatory, or injurious story, an appropriate remedy, though not always totally effective, lies not in an injunction against -that publication but in a damages or criminal action after publication.”
