Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The reporter's right to free press is being restricted in parts 2 and 3 of the scenario. In part 2, the editor demands the reporter to name his sources, which could potentially infringe on the reporter's ability to maintain the confidentiality of those sources. In part 3, the government official refuses to let the newspaper publish the story, which directly restricts the reporter's ability to freely report and disseminate information.
