Contextomy: quoting out of context. This is a type of false attribution in which a passage is removed from its surrounding matter in such a way as to distort its intended meaning. The issue is not the removal of a quote from its original context (as all quotes are) per se but the quoter's decision to exclude from the excerpt certain nearby phrases or sentences that serve to clarify the intention. Editor's note: I have not intentionally quoted out of context on this site; however, due to the use of visitor submissions, some of the quotes might be used out of context. If you come across this type of error, please let me know and I'll correct the problem as soon as I can. Thank you!
