Why are the newscasters taking such risks?? Oh I know they are exempt, for the people that have to read lips that watch the show??
Please explain the rational?


I cannot explain that,
but “the press” is given special freedom in the text of the 1st Amendment,
and the 14th Amendment says that no state can deny its citizens a right they have under the US Constitution,
so those reporters do have special legal protection for many behaviors.

Maybe we all should publish a newspaper,
and make a video newscast,
say once a year at Christmas?
