1Per curiam
This matter is before us on the “emergency motion” of appellants Cable News Network, Inc. and Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. (collectively “CNN”) to vacate three orders issued by the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida (the “District Court”). This case presents a difficult question regarding the District Court’s responsibility to balance the Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial of the defendant, General Manuel Antonio Noriega (“Noriega”), with CNN’s First Amendment right to be free from prior restraints against the broadcasting of newsworthy information.
