Credit Where Credit Is Due

The Stranger’s Brendan Kiley pegged Mike Daisey as a liar after watching his show in May 2011:

I hate to write this: I really, really hate to write this, because I admire what Daisey does, because labor abuses in China are serious business, because I want to believe that theater can be a world-changing force for good… but I kind of saw this coming. And it disturbed me at the time, because when journalists and activists (and activist-journalists) play fast and loose with the facts, they not only hurt themselves, but the people they’re supposed to be advocating for.
