Fake NY Times Newspaper
Today activists distributed millions of copies of a fake New York Times newspaper, filled with articles declaring that seemingly impossible social and political initiatives had been pushed through for the betterment of America. I was reading some comments on this bit of news and saw that many people thought it was some sort of lame joke, trying to pass itself off as The Onion.
I don’t think any of these people realized that the intent was to bring to light what the news would really look like if we actually started making major, radical and positive change. It was intended to discuss the impact of these changes if they were to happen and make a stark contrast between that world and the twisted one we live in now.
