Because they issued the restriction and it banned media helicopters from entering the area, and as the tapes and direct quotes reveal it was not about "safety" it was about silencing the media. So much for "free press".
My friend, I explained to you already that the media helicopters are dangerous and are not controllable by the FAA, and given that there were numerous police helicopters flying around, the airspace had to be restricted to controlled commercial traffic and the police only. It was a safety issue.
Has nothing to do with free press. This story has everything to do with the press being pissed off and pole vaulting over rat turds in an attempt to make it out to be some sinister conspiracy against them. Which it is not.
