Reporters are very good at sweet-talking you into an interview or statement and then publishing a hit piece.

For people who don’t work in PR and are associated with anything even remotely controversial it is usually better to not talk. I learned the hard way - I said one thing, and the reporter put my words in a totally different context to suggest I supported something I am totally against.
