...does he have that right? Several people were recording the event. Apparantly Lebron right after the occurance went to a head person of Nike that was there and had the recorded video taken from reporters at the event. Apparently the reporters were there all day recording pick up games and there was no issue with them being there. I'm dying to know if they have that ability, please advise.
 
This is likely a civil issue.

Typically reporters at any event will have to sign a myriad of waivers and agreements of what they can and can't do. Often there will be clauses allowing the parties running the event to have final say over what footage is released.

Thus Lebron's actions would appear tacky, but not criminal.
 
If the event was private and by invitation or ticket, then the sponsor of the event can set rules and restrict taping. It is no different than a band restricting videotaping of their concerts.
