No you dont, but if someone send you a FB message saying "be there at j12 at 0800 tomorrow morning and you'll have something to report". then yes you do, and yes you are.
Even worse if you message them saying "Guys when and where is the next one"
And thats he point. Its all about timing. If the press guys were there ready and waiting for the loons to turn up, the they are ripe for questioning over conspiracy charges. Proving it of course is the follow up part of the process.
