First Amendment scholar Stephen Barnett and Modesto Bee Managing Editor Dan Day are the newest additions to the California First Amendment Coalition’s board of directors. Barnett, an emeritus UC Berkeley law professor, is known for his expertise in California appellate law, both as a teacher and practitioner, and as an outspoken critic of the California Supreme Court. Day is perhaps best known in the Bay Area as the former AP bureau chief in San Francisco. He oversees a newsroom of 100 journalists in Modesto.
