Title: Wish I had their cajones
Product review: The Yes Men are back, pulling pranks not for the sake or pranking someone, but with some very real import! They pose in the media as representatives of Dow Chemical, who bought out Union Carbide, and pledge to pay reparations to the victims and an extreme loss to the company, and then it is on! When they are recognized in Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina, they try to do some fast talking to maintain their cover. The whole time I watch the Yes Men, I am berating myself for not having that kind of courage, but I am sure glad that they do! I use this and their first video in my class on Culture Jamming and have used it in the past in media classes and they always goes over very well. They provide an excellent example of how to use the mainstream media to get your point across.
