Abstract
The paper tackles and discusses freedom of expression in the context of the Brazilian jurisprudence as well as in the United States Supreme Court. With this aim, the paper also challenges some cases discussed in the Brazilian Supreme Court. The limitation upon the freedom of the press is also a pivotal issue undertaken by the paper. It highlights how the Brazilian Supreme Court has emphasized the liberty of the press as opposed to personal rights, such as the honor protection as well as the shield of one´s image. Following, the paper discusses many a U.S. Supreme Courts cases, in which a broad comprehension of free expression rights was built. As a message and as final question mark, the paper suggests that a debate about the limits of political campaigns financing also ought to be unfold in the framework of the freedom of the press, as to a certain degree defined by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Summary
A matéria evoluiu de forma truncada no Brasil, já que a tradição ideológica do positivismo de August Comte - marca na formação da república brasileira através de figuras singulares como Julio de Castilhos e Benjamim Constant - sempre conviveu mal com o pluralismo e o populismo característicos do processo democrático. A dependência mantida pela imprensa sempre foi uma constante, sendo o Estado sustentáculo na formação dos grandes conglomerados de mídia, como bem lembra Mario Sérgio Conti ou registra Lira Neto.
