NBL Media Accreditation terms
Does seem like overkill and a lot of negativity.
But perhaps they have realised how many people have rorted the media pass situation in the past.
Perhaps approaching all the major newspapers and local papers, tv stations relevant to local teams and issuing their basketball specific (if they have one) or general sports writer/reporter a media pass and a invitation to the first game in their respective cities, have someone from within the home team show them around and yes feed them.

Totally agree Isaac. This appears to be very negative even though the intent may not have been.
Give the media great seats, ply them with nourishment and make it a great experience. Far more likely to get them back and keep them writing about basketball.
