I was being a bit facetious, hence the last sentence. But given the often-appalling performance of reporters regarding science (and quite a few other things in recent years), I'd be disinclined to talk to most of them at this point. I've seen several people's words, my own included, misquoted, misinterpreted, and otherwise mangled, in print. If they are specialists in science reporting or come from a science-related journal/magazine, I'd be considerably more likely to cooperate.
