Once again, this question seems relevant because some political leaders seem to think that privacy is not an inalienable* right. A few years ago, I heard an “expert” on Fox News say that “the Constitution has no right to privacy.” He then said to look at the Bill of Rights and see if there is a “right to privacy.” Many years ago in an episode entitled “The Ring”, Fred Thompson’s character on the TV show “Law and Order” made the same argument; he literally held the Bill of Rights and asked where the “right to privacy” was mentioned. The claim upset me then. But hearing it from a “conservative” on Fox News is outrageous!
