The word "benefactor" about Roosevelt's position on ethical journalism suggests that he supports it. The correct answer is option D. The word benefactor comes from the Latin word "Bene facere" meaning, do good (to). Therefore, if someone is a benefactor, he/she is also called a supporter, or a sponsor.

The answer is: he supports it.

According to the root of the word and the passage above, one can safely infer that Roosevelt is a supporter of journalism, but only insofar as it is ethical journalism that sticks to the foundations of this practice, which, as Roosevelt would have it, should stick close to truth, or in other words: objectivity, responsibility, and well-founded information.
