Mike Daisy, art and "the truth".... Another casualty of big business power guns shooting down the little guy to protect their image? Or is there something deeper about the way that fiction is more powerful than fact to inspire and change minds? I still think Daisy and TAL did a great thing by helping to bring this story into the public consciousness. I'm also interested in see/read his work about JT Leroy and Stephen Glass. Theater is all about the manipulation of experience to create affect.
