The gist of Mike Daisey’s defense is the idea that, though the pieces of his story weren’t actually true, they combined to make for a story that painted a larger truth. Wrong. Daisey was not getting at a larger truth. He was instead painting a big lie.
I’ve only quoted the first paragraph. A beautifully crafted piece that clearly and completely addresses the whole Mike Daisey fiasco. Get thee hence and read!
