Media Release is bound to a keywords field but it looks like it's set up as a single-select list box? That could be part of the problem. A text field would be more appropriate in that scenario.

The symptoms suggest that something in the form's design is changing a
property value. It could be code behind the form or some odd
interaction with a combo box or list box.

I'll check. There is a list box and a radio button group for two custom
fields but they aren't doing anything other than offering the possible
values. There is no code behind the form.
