What I would have said had I been called upon (and why you should always speak up when given the chance)

I've been a reporter for 20 years. I've probably interviewed at least 400 people, maybe 500, possibly many more; I've been known to write 1,000-word pieces for which I interviewed more than 20 people, and I've written countless pieces.

Never more in my life have I understood what it feels like to be interviewed for a piece and then not be quoted.
