How is freedom of the press linked with rights in democracy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It gives citizens access to information and critical discussion

Direct answer: C is correct. Freedom of the press allows newspapers, television, digital media, and other lawful forms of journalism to investigate issues and present information and viewpoints. Citizens need such information to understand public decisions, compare policies, detect misuse of power, and participate thoughtfully in elections and public debate. A free press can question those in authority, although responsible reporting should respect law and accuracy. A is wrong because the purpose is to spread information, not hide it. B is wrong because press freedom does not cancel elections; it can help people evaluate candidates and parties. D is wrong because media freedom does not close courts. Memory cue: an informed citizen can question power; no information means weaker accountability.
