They bite...
As the Washington Post Article plainly shows, reporters will
report the story they want to report, and will use your quotes
(including quotes on their web site)to support their agenda, not yours, and will often quote or "lift" whole sections of government press releases, bogus unsupportable statistics and all, if it supports their agenda. These articles rarely deal with
facts, are rarely objective, and in the end make both hobbyists
and businesses, appear to be buffoons and yokels.
When dealing with the press it is best most times to say nothing
at all. At the moment our policy is to refer all press requests
for interviews to PIJAC.
