I think I've watched enough incidents where reporters and their microphones and their cameras are in the face of whoever, with as much as 3 rows of people pushing and yelling in whoever's face.  I would be more inclined to support an orderly, arranged press release with adequate time given to each  newspaper representative to ask a set amount of questions.   What it looks like is "prey" in a pool of circling hungry sharks with only one rule...news!.  When the news is about the news reporter, than the reporter has failed...period!   Stories of an encounter b/w reporter and the news "victim,"  is oftentimes a stretch when taking the constitutional freedom beyond decency and respect for another human being...who happens to be famous at the time.
