Both United States constitution in the Arkansas curson tuition guarantee the freedom of the press what role does the press have
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Freedom of the press is simply the right to publish information about public matters, without government intervention.

Explanation:

If a country has freedom of the press, it means that any citizen can investigate, and publish information to the public about things such as: government measures, society problems such as poverty, crime, and so on, and even about government corruptions and scandals.

In the U.S., the right of freedom of the press is similar to the right of freedom of speech. This means that the American government cannot decide what the press says, or what it publishes.

Without the right of freedom of the press, the American government would be more powerful, because it could control the information that gets to the public. This would be a great risk because the government could easily become a dictatorship.
