Page newspaper should serve as a forum for their dissatisfaction with the new governor of New York Sir William Cosby. Then appeared a series of anonymous articles that showed the authorities in a little flattering light. As a result, it Zenger in 1734 and imprisoned for defamation of the Governor. Although the governor by the selection of judges and disability of witnesses took an active influence on the process, this took a favorable Zenger end.

The 1954 award from the Institute of Journalism at the University of Arizona " John Peter and Anna Catherine Zenger Award for Freedom of the Press and the People 's Right to Know" is only an expression of memories.
