1. oh god words i hit word death. but this is more of an issue with outside planting and frost heaving if you don't, say, remove the burlap around a tree's root ball when you plant it. the visual is kind of the same though, where the root ball isn't established in the rest of the soil and the whole plant just kind of tips over when the soil is exposed to a lot of water?
like this: outdoor shrub experiencing frost heave, I don't have great descriptive words but basically the plant and some of the surrounding mulch have tipped over
2. the newspaper might keep *too much* water in, and make your plant more susceptible to the dreaded root rot. and will probably not disintegrate fast enough? wait for the watering post in a couple days and i will share Magic Watering Method I swear.
