8 yo invented a new game. He pretends to be a reporter asking me questions, and then makes up headlines misrepresenting what I said. I'm not making this up.

Replying to @paulg
I think there's a subtle distinction to be made here: Was he aiming to maximally misrepresent, or aiming for big headlines? In your case there's not necessarily much difference, but with some politicians complete and accurate quotes already make for big headlines.

I have a feeling that you probably get misrepresented by journalists more often than most simply because most of what you say isn't particularly shocking. It's possible journalists are in fact misrepresenting *as little as possible* subject to their constraint of "need a story".

It happens because there are some inconvenient facts they need to explain away, that investor bias is the only way they can think of to do it, that YC is the investor with the most retail brand, and that I was the face of YC.
