I was eleven or twelve when I first got turned on to the bull spun in news stories. A few friends and I were going around our small, one light town on our BMX bikes when a writer from the local newspaper started interviewing us. She was making a dumb fluff piece but we didn't know and we were excited to be in the paper. I recall feeling duped and angry when I read the piece; misquotes and context spun out of whole cloth. I've always hated people misquoting or misrepresenting things I have said..

It was an important lesson I'm happy to have learned. Once you know what to look for, you can see it everywhere.
