Dispatch was used as an example, a media outlet known for snapping photos of idols entering apartment buildings and capturing late-night car meetings to report dating news.

Ashley painted the picture of how nerve-wracking it could be, “Just constantly being followed by paparazzi and their cars. Even Dispatch, waiting in the parking lots trying to take pictures.
