the problem was the OP
"Freedom of the press is an integral part of the 1st amendment. Just wondering how rightwing media handled or ignored this story about Dan Heyman, the reporter that was arrested for asking persistent questions to Tom Price, HHS Secretary."
this post draws a straight line between Dan Heyman asking questions, and the government arrested him for doing so.
except he was arrested for barging past security.
there is freedom of press in public areas, but in places restricted from the public, you must be cleared before you can enter. furthermore, some places where you are legally allowed to be, have a different standard of conduct, of which if you violate it, you will be expelled from the building.
the fact that he was arrested seems excessive, i'll be the first to admit, and Trump wanting to redefine libel law is a horrifying political prospect, but for this situation, there is only smoke, and no fire.
the charges:
"Heyman was jailed on the charge of willful disruption of state government processes"
they're not attacking what he did, but the context in which he was acting. arrest seems too much, but apparently they had already been “forced to remove him a couple of times from the area,”
all in all the washington post perhaps is more to the left, but they've given us facts the facts here. they'll interpret them one way, but frankly this is an extreme non-issue.
