The correct response is:
Selective incorporation required that the right to freedom of speech be protected by state governments.
Selective incorporation refers to the constitutional doctrine through which certain rights and freedoms granted by the Bill of Rights have been applied to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment's Due Process Clause. This means that states are also required to recognize and protect certain fundamental rights, including the right to freedom of speech.
