Sorry but that sounds like Piers Morgan weakly insisting that his front page splash of British soldiers peeing all over Iraqi detainees was "representative of the sort of thing that's going on", right before being forced to admit the photos were staged. And then resigning.
As Damian said, if what he wanted to say was essentially true, all he had to to was bide his time and shoot his footage at a point when it was actually true. This was a very special form of incompetence.
