Bob, this has nothing to do with freedom of the press. Embargoed news releases are sent out early all the time for the convenience of the media outlet. It helps them prepare an article in advance. It's a form of professional courtesy.
Apparently Rob must have been very tired, because the press release said "**** For release: Tuesday, March 16, 2010 **** in two separate places at the top. That seems pretty clear to me and it's also clear it was ignored.
It doesn't take a journalist to figure this out.
