This is because some "news" outlets are unethical and will watch Macon Media's video of the meeting instead of attending the meeting, then write (or broadcast) about the meeting without indicating they were not at the meeting and the source of their information.)

Macon Media (Bobby)
The Franklin Press (Jake)
