    On August 4, 1735, John Peter Zenger is brought to trial. In a surprise move, his supporters hire a brilliant lawyer from Philadelphia to defend him. Andrew Hamilton argues in court that Zenger should not be found guilty of seditious libel because the Journal's criticisms of Cosby's government were true.
