Mistakes are inevitable. They send out a "reporter" with a cameraman and pick the best sound bites. Today the same airhead is covering the petting zoo at the county fair.
If you have ever been on the other side of a story, it's kinda chilling. I was interviewed for TV once many years ago and it was almost comical how badly they scrambled the truth. I was nervous and had no time to prepare. The reporter was even younger than me. There's no time for fact checking. They went on the air an hour or two after they filmed me.
To this station's credit, at least they showed a second or two of the guy fiddling with a capacitor on his workbench. Viewers shouldn't come away with the idea that you just drag these things out of a closet and they magically work.
