Another strategy that might be worth pursuing is getting the questions from the journalist and responding in writing. If the response is long then there is a chance it will get paraphrased / mangled. If the response is short there is a higher chance it will be quoted as is.
In the event a reporter wants the interactive dialog to flesh out some issues then maybe you could try the approach of having the dialog and then following up with some quotable statements about the topic. That approach has worked for me occassionally.
Lastly, may be there needs to be a ranking/reputation site for reporters ;-)
