It seems the 'free press' does not exist in the eyes of law enforcement. The independent media in Denver and St. Paul discovered that while doing their best to cover the conventions they were arrested for covering what the political parties and the host cities did not want seen. It seems the exercise of your constitutional rights is no longer allowed. It was suggested to one media group that they could be embedded and not risk arrest. Now that sounds like managing news, not allowing it to be reported. Say farewell to free speech, the right to assemble to protest, or the rights of a free press.
We now live in a police state.
