The event is not open to the public - tickets must be purchased to attend - so its not required that that the press be given unfettered access.
How is restricting access to the press believing freedom of the press? Sounds like snake oil.

Protecting kids from whom? So press is the evil, not the flame throwers on stage like Ron and JD who are the ones speaking to the kids? For that matter, shouldn't they be speaking to adults rather than kids if they are campaigning? For instance, how do you explain flat tax to a kid?

Besides, someone better tell the kids DeSantis is a cheapskate. His tax relief was a paltry $1.2Billion whereas CA gov. Newsom gave $9Billion+ back as tax refunds.
