So the baseline is disrespect?
Read it again, and you will understand. Furthermore, quote the whole quote not just the one that makes it seem like that what you imply, is what I am saying. You just typed out the whole explaination under this question you asked so obvilious you understood. If it was to make a point ? Then I apologize, good example to push home the point.
It is silly to think that one would just go disrespecting people. That is no good at all.
Personally, I am one to just leave most people alone, and leave them be. Even when encountered I will cordial.

In the case we have here ? There is reason to call into question the dress of said reporter.
If I come into work with a spaghetti stained tank top on, broken sandals, and dirty shorts with holes in them. The respect I will get INSTANTLY goes down. And, IMO, I would deserve that lack of respect. My actions have not earned the respect that I may think I should get no matter what. Just sayin'
