The Idea of a Free Press: The Enlightenment and Its Unruly Legacy - Visions of the American Press
David A. Copeland
The rise of a free press was, in many ways, a legacy of the Reformation and Enlightenment. The author describes a discourse centered on questions of religion - a discussion that the government, with all its religious authority, could not suppress because of the belief that the ability to reason for oneself was God-given.
