Biological Speculation, Suicidal Tendencies: "What better way to prep for my stint with the mandatory media 3 ring circus as my film gets ready for release early next year, then by ranting at the media? Maybe a meta-rant?
I’ve noticed a number of recent articles, talking about the extent to which film PR matters, more so than ever before, and to the extent to which lies, fabrications are manufactured, choreographed and played out, all for a few more free column inches in the hope of putting more asses on seats.
Genuinely good stuff, really showing how all this is supplied in the name of news.
But what is intriguing is how not one of these articles has examined the demand side of it- to put it bluntly, why do editors and publishers go along with this, knowing all along that it is a sham? Do they believe these stories to be true- which seems unlikely, as they are now publishing pieces that take on the falsehood of the entire enterprise."
