The media team do not know and should not be expected to know the exact minute details of how URLs can and cannot be validly formatted. Especially given that common parsers handle these cases in violation of the standards. Nobody ever uses URLs ending in a ., and for 99.999% of humans it is completely reasonable to write http://example.com http://example.com.
It's a different thing to say that they should have at least tested it first.

The rule is pretty simple, old and does not require "exact minute details": Don't follow URLs with punctuation characters.
