CBS intentionally violated posted gun show rules in phony undercover stunt

Had CBS 5 wished to discuss bullet buttons or any other fallout from California’s ridiculous and ineffective anti-gun edicts, there would have been no shortage of resources ready and willing to meet them face-to-face and provide their audience with informed guidance. The entire “undercover” rationale was unjustified from the beginning, designed to create the illusion that viewers were being provided a straight news exposé by hard-boiled reporters, instead of by mob-inciting “Authorized Journalist” hacks with plenty of agenda but not much in the way of respect for traditional ethics and canons of journalism.

California is an "informed consent state" but only when there is a "reasonable expectation of privacy". Unless the event was a "members only" type thing they were probably legally okay there. At best they could have been tresspassed if they had been caught violating the private prohibition on photography/filming.
