Presses interviewees like a journalist and then when they fire back, he jumps to the "I'm a comedian/satirist" crouch. You can't have it both ways...<br /><br />Daisey does the same thing here, but the manner in which he's so cavalier about the deception is what irritates me most. Positioning yourself as someone creating a piece of journalistic theatre (for the purposes of T.A.L.)and then when you get called out on the inconsistencies, replying with the "c'mon guys, this is theatre! I'm a theatre *artist*" is frankly quite arrogant and cowardly.<br /><br />Great post.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04735277138892286646noreply@blogger.com
