Simon Perkins (30-08-2005)
Utterance:
According to a report on the Australian Media Watch programme broadcast on ABC television last night, the protest group calling themselves The 30A Network have managed to "leak" to the media a false statement that the ex-US president George Bush Snr, will be attending the Forbes Global CEO Conference being held in Sydney, Australia. The interesting aspect of the story is that several Australian broadsheets were fooled by the hoax, and have reported the statement as being true. The The Sydney Morning Herald for instance still a has a statement on its site reporting that "the star turn [of the conference] is the former US president George Bush snr". This appears to be a prime example of Culture Jamming, where cultural crique is able to inform culture.
