Barring reporters from locations has nothing to do with freedom of the press. It's not "The Press", that has some special freedom. It's all of us, who have the right to print or otherwise publish what we will. We can be punished for printing slander, but there can be no "prior restraint". Very much like freedom of speech. You can be sued for libel, and you can be punished for inciting a riot, or even yelling "fire" in a crowded theater, causing death and/or injury to others. The government can't tape your mouth shut because you might shout fire... the theater owners could, but only as a condition for entering *their* theater.

But "The Press" has no more rights to know or to go places than anyone else, regardless of what they might tell you. Certainly FReepers should know that they routinely lie, if anyone should.
