What was john peter zenger charged with?

John Peter Zenger lived in New York, where he operated a newspaper, along with his wife. His newspaper and the opinions it contained displeased the British government (back then, America was still a British colony) and the governor arrested him. He was charged him with seditious libel. He was ultimately acquitted, but the Zenger's case (which occurred in 1735), led the Founding Fathers to want to protect the right of freedom of speech and freedom of the press, which they did by creating the First Amendment to the Constitution later on.

What was the significance of Reynolds v. US?

Reynolds was the first test of the First Amendment Free Exercise Clause that guarantees the the freedom of religion.First Amendment"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."On its face, the Constitution appears to forbid the US government from interfering in any aspect of religious practice. In Reynolds, however, the Waite Court held that Congress had no power to exercise control over opinions, but could limit actions that violated community social norms or subverted social order.This decision created an exception to the First Amendment, demonstrating even constitutionally protected rights are not absolute.Case Citation:Reynolds v. United States, 98 US 145 (1878)For more information, see Related Questions, below.
