Residents of cities would most strongly support Zenger's position on the press. They hire a brilliant lawyer from philadelphia to defend him.
John Peter Zenfer was an American-German journalist and he printed a publication called The New York Weekly Journal. He brought to trial on August 4, 1735 and this trial was an important step toward the freedom for American Colonists.
