Authentic? Never Mind [Paul Krugman for the NY Times]

[repost from my myspace blog, wed June 13, 2007]

I liked this editorial. I thought it was ballsy to lay it all out, and though I don't know anything about this writer (and want to know more, ie. what his particular slant is), it makes a great and complicated point about the concept of 'authenticity,' especially when spun in the media and viewed through the lens of political image cultivation.
