They were clearly in it to prove it was real. Hence the overarching narrative about the man on the horse.

You're just wrong on this one, watch it again. They're intentionally secretive with Angel, and they don't want TMZ/paparazzi showing up. They openly call it the "moneyshot". If they just wanted to prove it was real then wouldn't they be happy all the news crews show up after the crowd at Judy's ranch "disappears"?

"Oprah Shot."

And not really. Why let someone else tell an incomplete story and erase the reality?

The "story" being a picture of a UFO in the sky? The only thing being "erased" is their payday. Flimsy flimsy flimsy.
