Most understand when you decline to comment on an area that is a bit outside your expertise.

A journalist called me because I had written a newspaper article on a recent happening in a legal area that I do not practice in - my article was about a web based angle to it. I emphasized more than once to the journalist that I did not practice in X law, and that my expertise and commentary was about the web aspects. The journalist acknowledged that he understoood that. But when the article came out, it described me as an expert in X law. I was not amused. For the most part, my encounters with journalists have been positive and similar to your experience.
