The word "benefactor" about Roosevelt's position on ethical journalism suggests that he supports it. The correct answer is option D. The word benefactor comes from the Latin word "Bene facere" meaning, do good (to). Therefore, if someone is a benefactor, he/she is also called a supporter, or a sponsor.
