This week our pop culture and book discussion overlap big-time, with a conversation on what it means to have a public image, to "be" in public, including and especially on the internet. We discuss The Duchess of Wales's Photoshop mishap and the fallout it caused, and what all this suggests about being a persona in the media (for famous people) and on the internet (for the rest of us). Naomi Klein's book about her own real-life doppelgänger centers our discussion on the nature of multiple lived realities, and what it means when people confuse you with another person on the internet.
