Answer:

c. ​unconstitutional under the First Amendment.

Step-by-step explanation:

In her suit against Lake City, a court would likely hold the ban on printed materials to be ​unconstitutional under the First Amendment.

First Amendment right includes freedom of speech and the press. Banning the distribution of printed materials infringes on these rights and is unconstitutional.
