      So I don't know, I think we should acknowledge that journalists often do this and get away with it b/c interview subjects don't complain

      @avantgame I've only been interviewed once & they 100% paraphrased me. Always thought that was essentially illegal. I guess not. Very lame.

      @raygungirl @avantgame What exactly do you mean when you say they paraphrased you? Did it have quote marks around it?

          @niltiac I have had good experiences with @nytimes and other experiences where all quotes were paraphrases

          @avantgame @niltiac are they taking from other interviews? Making up completely? Or shortening quote? Totally different things...

          @heatherAtaylor If you read through @avantgame's stream, she's saying they regularly put things into different words, still with quote marks

          @niltiac @avantgame that's not right either but not as bad as making up entire quote or stealing from another interview...IMHO

          @heatherAtaylor @avantgame It's close to making it up. I think it's worse than stealing an accurate quote from another interview.

          @niltiac @avantgame no way. Not good to change anything but take someone else's quote esp without attribution?? That's plagiarism! Bad!

          @heatherAtaylor @avantgame I didn't say someone else's quote, and I didn't say without attribution either.

          @niltiac Print media has a lot to do with it; the quote is completely at the mercy of the writer. A/V would keep *something* intact, I think

          @raygungirl Oh yes, I thought you meant as opposed to online media. With A/V a lot depends on the program and format.
