Why is the episode named A Clear and Present Danger?
* The phrase “clear and present danger” refers to language used by the Supreme Court in its ruling on Schenck vs. the United States. Under this ruling, the government could restrict someone’s right to free speech if, by their actions, they presented a “clear and present danger that they will bring about the substantive evils that Congress has a right to prevent.” Subsequent Supreme Court cases have changed the standards for judging whether restricting free speech is acceptable.
* “Clear and Present Danger” was also used as the title for a Tom Clancy Novel and a film based upon it. In this context, the phrase indicates that a covert organization has permission to engage in illegal activity to eliminate a “clear and present danger” to the nation’s security.
