I think that at our level in the news food chain, it is wise to assume that any words said to journalists may be published regardless of our wishes or promises received.

   To change what was said, no.  To ensure that it's taken in the
proper context, yes.  It's done in the media every day.

I think it is unwise to assume that you will get an opportunity to
review a story before publication - let alone offer comments or
corrections - unless you have specifically negotiated that right with the
reporter and perhaps their superiors.  YMMV.  IANAL.
