Description: Tee shirt for the fictitious business a New Republic columnist used for a fabricated article about hackers. The debunking of this article by the then-nascent field of online journalism, brought down the whole scheme. You should really see the Billy ray film Shattered Glass which follows this saga. It's really good. Best Hayden Christensen movie IMHO. Of particularly funny note, when cornered, the journalist tried to fool people with a fake website at an 1998 AOL Members link which was only visible to AOL users, not the web as a whole. PS: Do not take this as an endorsement of trump's frequent claim of fake news. The only fakes are him and his fox news pravda cronies, and it's disgusting.
