The media is not just the message. The media is a massage. We're constantly being stroked, manipulated, adjusted, realigned, and manoeuvered.

My challenge as a satirical artist is how to present ideas to people to enable them to question and reexamine their beliefs. My hope is, that my work provokes people to look at things in a new way.

Any journalist worth his or her salt wouldn't trust me.

But I learned first-hand how the news media operates by watching how they interpreted, changed, and misrepresented my intentions.

If I'm successful in fooling a wire service, I don't really have to do anything else to promote the story.

My art became very public.
