What about the media? (Score 1)

I am surprised that nobody has asked the question of what happens if the media records the police. Can the news not record the police? Wouldn't that go against freedom of the press? If it does, how are the media any different than a normal citizen. Any citizen can report news.

Do these laws then interfere with freedom of the press? Do these laws interfere with my ability to petition the government for redress of grievances? This seems to go against the grain of the first amendment.
