Well Robert Mapplethorpe is dead but we can probably go through a catalogue of NEA grant winning photographers and find plenty of others who incorporating people urinating on each other (and shooting black & white film).

Let those people working for the government earn their keep. If they are going to give good taxpayer dollars to artists who photograph people peeing on each other then they can be the ones to match up the photographer to the hoax.

I'm not saying that it is an NEA grant winner who took the shots but at least it's a start (especially considering the monolithic politics of the cliquish art community).

Very good start.

My case: there is great irony in asking the Media to expose their own "chain of command." We have to ask: are these fake photos examples of a few bad journalistic apples, or is the entire journalistic community out of control?

The Partisan Press (Maniacal Media?) continues to suffer from Post-Traumatic Kerry Syndrome one that fervently believes that anyone or anything connected to the military is corrupt and dangerous.
