The hazards of trying to be journalism and non-journalism at the same 
time--Ira Glass' public radio program aired an excerpt from a one-man 
theater piece by monologist Mike Daisey about working conditions at a 
Chinese supplier to Apple--Glass now says that the piece was "fabricated" 
in part and will devote the entirety of this weekend's program to quizzing 
Daisey about what was real and what was made up (interestingly enough, the 
initial challenges were made by a reporter for American Public Media's 
"Marketplace")--for his part Daisey says he was doing art, not journalism:
