Which amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to freedom of the press?

  1. First Amendment.

  2. Second Amendment.

  3. Fourth Amendment.

  4. Eighth Amendment.

The correct answer is: First Amendment.

The First Amendment guarantees not only the right to freedom of the press, but also the right to freedom of speech, religion, petition, and assembly. The Second Amendment is the right to bear arms, the Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable search and seizure, and the Eighth Amendment prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. Therefore, B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not protect the right to freedom of the press.
