To get into certain government events with city and county government in San Diego.  They require a press credentials issued by them.  If they don't like what you posted, they simply deny giving you a pass.

I was wondering if their is something we can do about this?

The challenge is to be able to prove that you're being denied a credential because of what you have written.  If you can do that, you should be able to get a court-ordered correction plus attorney's fees.
