It leaves us with the fact that the newspaper has no more ground(s) than you or I to obtain these names.

I can't think of one legal reason for the newspaper to lay claim to this information.
Newspapers, and other media outlets, however, feel that they have an absolute right to any information they want. Their belief is that the press can report on anything and anyone at any time and that no one has the right to withhold anything from them.
