Bob Freeman honored by New York News Publishers Association Bob Freeman got what he deserved last night. A standing ovation. Freeman, head of the state Committee on Open Government, was recognized by the New York News Publishers Association with the organization's highest honor, the John Peter Zenger Award, for his contributions to journalism and freedom of the press. John Peter Zenger, for those who recall their high school history lessons, was a crusading New York City newspaper publisher during the 1700s who published articles critical of the governor. Zenger was brought up on charges of seditious libel and eventually acquitted. The case led to the principle that truth is a defense of libel. Bob Freeman earned the award in John Peter Zenger's name by being the citizens' strongest advocate for open government over the past 30 years.
