Dude, it's a company that makes consumer goods. It's not the government refusing to credential a reporter.
If you are actually an objective news company trying to evaluate a product, then do what Consumer Reports does and go to the open market and buy the generally available product for the full retail price, and then evaluate it. That is a requirement to be an honest broker not influenced by a vendor, which is why Consumer Reports does it. So make up your mind as to whether you want to be a journalist that is independent or whether you are willing to compromise and do P.R. work for apple in exchange for early access.

You asked me for journalists that are critical and didn’t get access and I showed you. What’s your point in justifying exactly what I proved?

> Yes, Apple maintains a press “blacklist,” a list of people in the media who are shunned and ignored — “punished,” as it were, for “disloyalty.”
>“Blacklisted” reporters, editorialists and media personalities are denied access to information, products and events.
>Once you’re on the list, it’s almost impossible to get off. (I’ve been on it for more than a decade.)
