I saw this on their site, but the audio is really bad, so I searched up a copy on YouTube. I know nothing about the entity that posted it there.

1. They say "NO," because they know they'll be fired on the spot. n/t

3. Rather intimidating having security 'escort' the news guy, no?

[lumpy]

2. Wow, that really reeks. Like who owns the beach ?

The State should issue a policy statement.

7. I wondered the same thing...

"Who owns the beach."

I mean, so what happens if you walk past him and continue on...or walk around him?

What's he going to do? Physically detain you for walking on a public beach?

This is crazy!

8. Not a duplicate

I added this as it is the complete (3+ minute) version from the source, not the remixed 2 minute one - per request in another thread.

6. Who the hell are they to block access?

Public beach, jerks. The reporters should call the cops.
