If a reporter or photog gets in your face, you get one free strike with no legal penalty. Kick or punch, as hard as you want. No retaliation allowed unless you hit the reporter a second time.
I understand that people who willingly live in the spotlight must expect to endure a certain level of unwanted publicity, but there is a point at which it crosses the line of personal boundaries. Regardless of who the target is.
Reporters chase the targets down the street, ram mikes into their faces, screaming questions, popping flashes in their eyes, etc. A person, any person, should not have to tolerate such an intrusion. The police generally do nothing.

And an ignorant person I came in contact with wondered why William and Harry are not too fond of the press.

Celebrities have a love/hate relationship with Papa Rozzi. Because without him, they aren’t a celebrity.

Just put the camera in burst mode and keep shouting questions.

Or skip the questions and make up your own narrative to cater to whomever is your target audience.

I propose a 3 Foot 1 Strike rule.

I say give the targets 1 good shot.
