Answer:

C. Some schools have done away with student newspapers, blocked the publication of yearbooks, and censored the content of student-based Web pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier case revolved around a school journalist who sued the school district since the school forced the journalist to stop covering certain type of stories that 'might ruin the school's reputation'

The student journalist argued to the court that the school has violated his first amendment right (the right to give free speech).

At first, the court actually sided with the school. This make some schools start to heavily censored students' newspaper, yearbooks, and web pages.

The decision eventually overturned in 2018.
