The legal case surrounding<em> John Peter Zenger</em> in 1734 dealt with issues that would later be addressed by the First Amendment which strengthens the <em>freedom of the press.</em>


John Peter Zenger was arrested for printing a publication in The New York Weekly Journal. This publication accused the governor William S. Cosby of corruption, rigging various elections and serious crimes. Zenger only printed the articles without revealing the names of the authors. He was proved innocent by the jury that admitted his right to print allegations that yet had to be proved right or wrong.
