Imagine the following scenario: A reporter writes a story that reveals Senator Carly Capitol has been engaging in illegal activity. The reporter supports the story with quotes from anonymous sources. The editor of the newspaper demands the reporter name his sources. A government official reviews the story and refuses to let the newspaper publish it. Use the scenario to answer the question. In which parts of the scenario is the reporter’s right to free press being restricted? (1 point) Responses 1 and 3 1 and 3 2 and 4 2 and 4 2 and 3 2 and 3 3 and 4
The reporter's right to free press is being restricted in parts 2 and 3 of the scenario. Part 2 is when the editor of the newspaper demands the reporter name his sources, which can infringe on the reporter's ability to protect their sources and potentially inhibit their ability to gather news. Part 3 is when the government official refuses to let the newspaper publish the story, which is a direct restriction on the reporter's right to publish information.
