Why would newspaper reporters be upset with the Federalists when they approved the Sedition Act?

The newspaper reporters were upset with the Federalists when they approved the Sedition Act because it robbed them off of their right to speech.

Explanation:

The Sedition Act was enforced by the Federalists in 1798 which was to expire on March 3, 1801. The act was passed ceasing the right to speech of the press.

The Federalists passed this act under the fear of the possibility of threat by the French. The newspaper reporters were upset with the Federalists when they passed the Sedition Act because the Federalists did this to their infant republic and save President John Adams from criticism by the Democratic-Republican newspaper editors as well. This act ceased the right of the press to publish anything, to criticise anyone, etc.
