"touches" means contact with anything in the designated area; (person, place or thing); ground, person, camera, fence, blade of grass, camerman's toupe, flash bulb (remember them), etc. Anything other than passing over or through in flight (untouched), but only if it is occupied. Presumably, occupied by a non-media person would cause an argument.
