How come journalists are able to find/interview wanted criminals yet authorities have a hard time catching them?

Are you thinking of people like Julian Assange or Ed Snowden? Some fugitives are ‘hiding in plain sight’ – it’s not that people don’t know where they are, it’s just that there are rules preventing the authorities from making an arrest. And sometimes the reporter just finds them first – some reporters are really smart, and would have made great detectives.
Fugitives might even be eager to talk to the media; they could call a reporter and say “I want to tell my side of the story; can you meet me?”.
