Yes a single sitting in itself will not reveal her entire career results. But these single sittings all add up and they are usually ignored by paranormal believers for example Michael E. Tymn's biography does not mention any of the negative sittings (Rinn is not cited etc). In total I have come across about sixty sitters who received totally negative sittings with Piper, noting she fished for information or made errors.
Amy Tanner lists some of these sitters in her book:

(The chapter first cites sitters who were convinced, some neutral and then those who had negative sittings)
