The term press line typically refers to an area or a setup where members of the media, such as journalists, photographers, and camera operators, are stationed to cover an event.
In these settings, celebrities, VIPs, or event participants walk along a designated path (the “line”) and stop at various points to talk to the press, pose for photos, or give interviews.
[1] This arrangement provides an organized way for the media to get access to the individuals of interest, and ensures that multiple media outlets can cover the event efficiently.
The press line is often marked or cordoned off, and is managed by event organizers to maintain order and direct the flow of interactions.
[4] Before a press line begins, members of the media are typically given a "face sheet."
