I apologize for the confusion. The correct answer is 2 and 4. In the scenario, the demand from the editor for the reporter to name his sources restricts the reporter's right to free press, as it undermines the principle of protecting anonymous sources. Additionally, the government official's refusal to let the newspaper publish the story further restricts the reporter's right to free press.

Answer 11

I apologize for the confusion. You are correct. The correct answer is 3 and 4. The demand from the editor for the reporter to name his sources restricts the reporter's right to free press, as it may compromise the ability to gather information and maintain confidentiality. Additionally, the government official's refusal to let the newspaper publish the story also restricts the reporter's right to free press. Thank you for pointing out the error.
