Media are far worse than that. After my time in trade shows, people expect their lunch to be taken care of, even though they make a decent wage as a media member. And if you don't have Wi-Fi access...
i dont see what the big deal is? they were led to believe they would have nice trailer bathrooms and they get portapotties. i'd be pissed too, those things are horrible.

field journalists often have to deal with much worse than port a potties in the course of doing their jobs. i mean it is kind of ridiculous that they should have to line up for plastic stinkholes at the well funded DNC convention, but if you're really a journalist you should care enough about reporting that a speck of dirt on your ass is kind of a tertiary thing.
