I know exactly what you're talking about. Once years ago I was asked to watch a Clinton speech and then speak with a reporter afterward for my reaction (being almost the only Democrat in a heavily conservative town). I spoke with the reporter for more than an hour, giving all sorts of very specific critiques and remarks. The article appeared the next day and the reporter quoted only the first five words I said: "'Clinton is a brilliant speaker,' gushed Mrs. Sands." I had gone on to say "but this, that and the other thing." And I never "gushed!" He totally ignored every other thing I'd said. What was the point of the hour-plus conversation? I suppose we could blame it on the editor...
