Maybe, but why would the Vatican then need to lie about an interview even taking place? Why not just tell us what the Pope really said or meant to say? I don't think the interviewer accidentally misrepresented what the Pope said. I think that either the interviewer is telling the truth, or he's just plain making things up to slander the Pope on purpose.
Francis talks out of "both ends"; it's a way to placate liberals and conservatives, in order to maximize revenue and influence. His modality is the classic Marxian dialectic (or, "diuretic", depending on one's POV!)
