I was a new photographer in a past job. I was there to get the head shot of the person interviewed, or a location shot. It ranged from cops and feel good stories, to business leaders and human interest stories. I was there hearing the interview, and and taking pictures. I would read the article and look to see which photo the editor selected, and often times the editor or reporter themselves edited the quotes to completely change what was said. Even straight news of a train wreck, the final "truth" was twisted to change what I saw first hand. It is a sleazy business.
We all want to see the honest investigative reported uncover the truth and expose the bad guys. That seems to be mostly a Hollywood fantasy. Maybe it still happens, but the one sided reporting is nothing new.
