Answer:

The trial of Peter Zenger showed that the jury needs to be more diverse. The jury on his first trial were all in general his enemies(the king's council). That's not fair since they would be on the king's side and the judge makes decisions with the help of the jury and the evidence they present. This would mean an unanimous belief that he should be in jail. His second trial were full of Zenger's peers. Which may not be fair but was a victory for Zenger(with the help of famous lawyer Hamilton)

The famous case of Peter Zenger happened in 1733. He was accused of calumny. Earlier it was illegal for any individual to write and promote any opinion or information against the government.

This hearing showed that the judicial policy needed to reform and the judging panel should be more diverse.

  • The tribunal in Zenger's trial was all King's members that clearly would not have supported or defended him.

  • The panel members were surely on the leader's side and the court could not reach a balanced judgment as they would be biased towards the predicament.

  • In his next trial, the jury was filled with Zenger's supporters and hence the verdict came in his favour.

Therefore, this case shows that impartial bar arrangement should be abolished.
