Explanation:
The trial of Peter Zenger, a noted publisher in New York, worked to establish the rights of a free press.
Zenger's trial was still fresh in the minds of some of the founders when they worked to push for an Amendment to the Constitution a generation later that expressly gave the press rights.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The question does not include options. We do not know the name of the individuals you are referring to. You also did not mention what period in the history of the US you are referring to.
So although your question is incomplete, we can help you answer in the following general terms.
We assume you are referring to the Progressive era in the United States history from the 1880s to the 1920s.
During this era, many reformers demanded changes in US politics and economics. After many injustices lived during the Gilded Age, muckraker journalists exposed the corruption activities of many legislators and politicians. The federal government created legislation to stop this situation and also created laws to eliminate monopolies in the economy.
So we can say that reformers built a foundation to change the political and economic scene in the US, as well as society.

Explanation:
The Soviet Union (USSR), (1922- 1991), did not really rob the people of their freedom. Before the creation of the USSR, the country was ruled for three centuries by Romanov czars (1613–1917). A progressive and short-lived provisional government (1917) served as a mere interregnum between the autocratic czars and totalitarian Communism. The country was not free either before or during the Soviet time. Only for a brief time in the 1990s was Russia a free country. Although the USSR did not invent the Russian dictatorship, it was more repressive and cruel than its Romanov predecessors—especially during Stalin's rule (1924–1953). When Stalin was in power, the state's control of the media was total. Those who attempted to read or listen to anything apart from what was allowed were punished.
Fear was much more pervasive during the Soviet time. The USSR had extremely efficient secret police who eliminated real or potential opponents. There were purges. Stalin-era purges led to the deaths or exile of thousands of people.
Peasants suffered more than the urban population during Soviet rule. Farms were taken over by force under Stalin. Many peasants starved or were sent into forced labour in Siberia.
After the death of Stalin in 1953, Soviet citizens enjoyed slightly more freedom. But only the last leader of the USSR, Mikhail Gorbachev, was willing to give some rights to Soviet citizens. Western-style democracy has always been alien to Russia as it has almost always been ruled by a tyrant.
