It's my experience that reporters always manage to be in the most annoying spots- and NOT MOVE

NYC there was a camera crew and the sound person was right in front of our working area off the field, when asked to move she basically told me to shhh!

A better experince was in Toronto

After winning the semi-finals a reporter came up and interviewed the girl driving for 379... they were very nice and were very carful not to get in the way or interput at a bad time.

I think news coverage is very important and FIRST needs to reach out and try to get more of it (broadcast on a major network would be good, I don't know many people who get NASA tv). News reporters like to make every FIRST game sound like basketball, when i explain FIRST i am always careful to say it's not basketball (this year they were SOCCER balls).
