Joe Brown was rock climbing last month. He slipped and fell but caught his rope and managed to hold on for 10 minutes, swinging free, until other climbers were able to pull him to safety. A weekly paper, The Moon, ran an article including quotations and thoughts attributed to Brown about the incident. Twenty of the article’s 30 paragraphs included quotations and thoughts attributed to Brown, indicating Brown was scared but brave. However, The Moon had not interviewed Brown.
