Correct answer:

First Amendment freedoms were incorporated into the Fourteenth Amendment.

The Gitlow v. Case New York took place in 1925 and was discussed before the Supreme Court of the United States where it was ruled that the Fourteenth Amendment had extended the scope of certain provisions of the First Amendment. The provisions on freedom of expression and freedom of the press were discussed.
