Has the definition of "misquote" changed?

As in attributing something that wasn't actually said to a person when they didn't say it? Uh, no? "... we want consumers to think to themselves 'I will work more hours to buy one'", is not "get a second job" which people think is the actual quote he said.

I agree with you. The OP is an example of a misquote. People are responding with actual quotes and saying they still count.
