This made me so happy. To see the world in print as you wish it could be is like turning your face away from a hail storm only to find a fresh, balmy breeze.
I love that they took it all the way in recreating the New York Times exactly, including the advertisements: De Beers funding the creation of prosthetic hands for the Africans who lost theirs in the search for diamonds? Priceless.
Though the paper may sadly be fake, what it states in the fine print on A2 is true: "Today that better world is finally possible...but only if millions of us demand it." Thank you Yes Men for helping us visualize a better world to live in. It's a great start. Here's to new beginnings!
