Press Gallery is a closed shop controlled by old media. View themselves as players, which in a way, they are.
Press Gallery Committee Executive defines and gate-keeps who's an operative and who's not, decides who gets parliamentary access and who doesn't.
Mostly just a guild of lobbyists and agents for old media barons with their own dedicated wing in the Senate corridors. All very old school and anti-democratic.
Stretch to call the majority of them journalists.
