Explanation:

Benjamin Franklin:  best known as a founding father and scientist,  also a highly successful printer and publisher, was publishing at the age of 16 years old for his older brothers news papers. in 1729, Franklin purchased the Pennsylvania Gazette, which became one of the most respected newspapers of its day. from  1733 to 1758, Franklin found time to produce an annual edition of Poor Richard’s Almanack. Then Franklin later gained fame as a signer of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

Frederick Douglass: "born into slavery  in Maryland, Frederick Douglass escaped north in 1838 by disguising himself as a sailor and carrying fraudulent identification papers.  He began after he was free  lecturing on the evils of slavery and also penned an autobiography. After touring Great Britain and Ireland for two years, the largely self-taught Douglass returned in 1847 with enough money to legally buy his freedom and to start an abolitionist newspaper in Rochester, New York, called the North Star. Douglass published the small but influential North Star, later renamed Frederick Douglass’ Paper, until 1860. In the aftermath of the Civil War, he took over a weekly newspaper that promoted civil rights, wrote an updated autobiography and also received several government appointments."
