Answer:

“The press was to serve the governed, not the governors.”

—U.S. Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black in New York Times Co. v. United States (1971)

Explanation:

<em>Freedom of the Press-</em>

This liberty is protected by <em>The First Ammendement</em> which states- <em>"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."</em> This allows the general public to express themselves without penalty from the government. This, however, does not mean one will not receive retribution from the common people who may hold varying points of opinion or belief.

-Hope this Helps!

diamong [38]

Answer:

Democracy

Explanation:

Democracy is a social organization in which political control is exercised by the people. It is a system of government that results from the free choice of rulers, which is expressed by the union and will of the majority of the governed, confirmed by votes.

The concept of democracy emerged in Ancient Greece in 510 BCE, when Cliestenes, a progressive aristocrat, led a rebellion against the last tyrant, overthrowing him and initiating reforms that implanted democracy in Athens.

This concept contributed much to the construction of the modern world we know.
