MORE ON THE DANGERS OF TALKING TO REPORTERS

Responding to Gar Travis' item on talking to reporters,
Tom DeLorey writes: "In one of his books, Jack Parr complained
about a piece that the New York Times had done on him. The
reporter had visited his home up in Connecticut, made from
a wonderfully remodeled barn, only to say in the story that
Parr 'lived in a barn.' When he complained to the paper,
Parr was told that the description of the property had been
shortened due to lack of space. In the book he said that his
response to the Times was something to the effect of: 'So
what you are saying is, All The News That Fits You Print?' "
