Interesting question. How far can "misleading" go until it reaches the
status of lies, and possibly ethical impermissability?
I am surprised that you and Jeffrey seem to be so blase about what Truman
was subjected to. My instant reaction to the show was that what the
Hollywood Producer was doing here was very seriously wrong.
Anybody else not have a problem with the raising of Truman? Or am I really
in a lonely minority on this question?
