Even reporters have to follow the rules - robkelk - 08-05-2007
As was discovered by a reporter from Dateline NBC, who tried to ignore the rules at DEFCON and got caught.
There are a few disagreements in minor details between the stories on the Register, the Inquirer, and Wired, which makes me believe this really happened (as opposed to being a publicity stunt). InfoWorld has the most details, but no photos.
It's a sad commentary on modern news shows that they think they could have gotten away with breaking the rules, or that even trying to get away with that was the right thing to do.

Quote:There was some talk about reporters not following the rules on Fox News. It was after the two helicopters crashed. They were talking about the way the press chases after crime scenes in cars and not following any sort of road laws, such as speed limits.
