Tension seeking?

The interview below mentions the distortions of the media, finding little relationship in the reported interview of her uncle in the News of the World, to that which was said.
I've read the article and it seems to me that interviews are purposely twisted to create tension, when most people are trying to do the opposite.
Are we right to allow newspapers to do this? Is this real democracy?
I feel that the media should be made to record every interview they print. If the interviewee protests that the written word is a distortion of the verbal one, the recording should be passed to an ombudsman for assessment. If a gross distortion is found heavy fines should be made.
This way we might gradually have a more truthful media?
