How did free press extend citizens' role beyond receiving information?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: They could form opinions and take part in debate

The governing concept is the press as an institution of public opinion. A free or relatively open press did more than deliver facts: it offered arguments, reported events, compared viewpoints and enabled readers to judge public decisions. Citizens could therefore discuss issues, criticise authority, support causes and influence wider opinion. Option A is correct because it combines independent opinion-making with participation in debate. Option B describes obedience rather than citizenship, option C contradicts the expansion of public involvement, and option D confuses ordinary readers with officials who controlled publication.
