Fake New York Times


Steve Lambert was one of the artists who helped organize the fake new york times prank, and although this happened a couple of months ago i think it deserves to be mentioned. In this project, 1.2 million copies of a utopian version of the paper with the headline "IRAQ WAR ENDS" were given out across the city for free. Culture-jamming groups like the Yes Men, Code Pink, and Improv Everywhere claimed credit in a press release, but it is also known that many respectable journalists also to part in the event.




I don't understand why I never heard about any of this in the "news"
