Because it's in the rules (media are allowed in designated media areas).

I do not think the issue here is that this happen in a designated media area. This is a media personnel that was on the field during play. Not the same thing. And the IHSA does not set where there would be a designated area, during a regional. That would be the host or home school. And I am sure that would be an issue in the pregame or everyone would be informed before game time so they umpires, coaches and players would be aware this was dead ball territory. That is not what happen in this story. And that was my point.
