Is this because of police changing their tactics or is it because of journalists changing their tactics?

I don't know the answer, but with the internet and analytics, we've seen media become more sensationalistic to get those clicks and views. So this is a possibility that should be considered.

Honestly cannot tell if you're trolling. If journalists are getting roughed up more because of sensationalism (still well within their 1st amendment rights) that is _completely_ the fault of police.

One side has cameras. The other side has guns. When violence happens, who's fault do you think it is?

Do you agree that police have the right to declare a gathering unlawful and can clear the area?

Clear the area how? I think people have forgotten this doesn't need to mean your first step is pulling out the batons. If you tell a journalist they are under arrest, they will always comply. They won't fight back. So yes, still cops' fault.
