Because we want them to be there.
It's generally considered a good thing that reporters are on hand to record the news because people like to be inform about what's going on.
Since we all feel we benefit from and approve of reporters being there, we have an expectation that their safety is desirable. This can be facilitated if the cops, the Guard, the Marines, etc simply ignore them, act as if they aren't there.
Those aren’t special protections.
