Wideawake: "Placing what she actually said in its context is precisely what Breitweiser, these assemblywomen, Hewitt and Peach do not want you to do."
Xenalyte: "One need not know the context to declare a quotation out of context. By definition, all quotations are "out of context.""

Wideawake is completely correct. Placing a quotation in context means reading it in its proper place, in the midst of its surrounding material.

Ergo, they don't want you to know the context.
