	Description:		Earlier this week, the Supreme Court ruled on the case of Elonis v. U.S. Anthony Elonis was convicted of violating a federal threat statute after he posted violent messages about his estranged wife on Facebook. The Supreme Court overturned Elonis’ conviction, with Chief Justice John Roberts stating that a reasonable person standard is "inconsistent with the conventional criminal conduct requirement of 'awareness of some wrongdoing.’" We’ll explain what that means this week on the Mediatwits podcast, with guests Jennifer Chen, freelance journalist; Maeve Duggan, research analyst at Pew Research; Jonathan Peters, assistant professor of journalism at the University of Kansas; and regular guest Andrew Lih at American University. MediaShift’s Mark Glaser is the host and Jefferson Yen is producing.
