I used to believe that newsanchors always told the truth, kind of a legal requirement for being on TV. Then one day in the early 70s, when I was about 10, I saw an interview with Mohammed Ali. An hour or so later, Walter Chronkite paraphrased Ali completely to the opposite of what I had actually heard. I now believe one should never trust journalists.
