Once someone makes clear they don't want to speak to the press, continuing to pursue them can cross into harassment, however newsworthy the story.10 Sep 2026 17:03 +0000at://did:plc:ifnvjuv7ydcukpomvbirg3vs/app.bsky.feed.post/3mv6jt5lhqn2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/pressjustice.bsky.social/post/3muwyfdia3b2rPress abuse doesn't just hit individuals.
