built 260 days ago
WITH a plethora of newspapers pumping out forests-worth of newsprint on the perils of global warming, poll-watching politicians are keen to play up their green credentials these days. Summiteers working into the night at The Hague last week in search of a deal to agree a global plan to tackle the menace, clearly wanted to let the voters know they were taking the problem seriously. There were few obvious departures from the standard script in which smoke-belching businesses are seen as despoilers of an innocent planet." (The Scotsman)

This drama was used in week two of the War of the Worlds series. It features two country brothers who discover a meteor on their farm and humorously debate the possibilities of the fame and fortune it could bring them - and which one of them should get all the credit.
One might say that War of the Worlds and the game show scandal foreshadowed the age of simulation that was still to come. Allowing for a little poetic overstatement, the Milli Vanilli scandal served as a rite of passage or symbolic marker, making clear that we now live in an age of simulation confusion in which our tendency to mistake fakes for what they imitate has become one of the characteristic problems of the age.
