The Yes Men Fix the World
After the success of The Yes Men, the New York political action co-operative return to embarrass and humiliate corporations in equal measure. Largely fronted by Andy Bichlbaum and Mike Bonnano, they use phony websites and business names to persuade presumably otherwise rational people to accept their ideas. Such as the 'Survivaball', presented as the latest terrorist survival product from Haliburton. It's a human sized beach ball 'suit' meant to protect the individual inside but if they fall over, they can't stand up again and would just roll around. At a conference for the security industry, not one expert questions its viability. Although the Yes Men's exploits are funny and illuminating, they do ask a deeper question - if they can fool all these powerful men (and it is largely men) who run America, in how many other and more frighteningly important ways are these people being conned?
