    By “the public,” do you mean people who are seeing this in person, or people who are seeing it in news articles on the Internet?

    Most of the public would be in the latter category, where the context is in clear display.

      Assuming people bother to read more than the headlines, or trust news to not put their own spin on things. The title of this post, and the BBC article it links to, are just “Arrests after Charles Darwin grave spray-painted”. It doesn’t even mention who or why until you get into the body of the article, which tragically few people will bother to do these days.
