ORSON FUCKIN' WELLES Do you admit that his radioplay included a retraction? I never heard of him. That's cause he's an arts and literary figure A while back, medication boy insisted that there was no disclaimer in Welles' adaptation, and that the whole broadcast was passed off as fake news broadcasts which caused hysteria. I pointed out that this was nonsense, that there was a disclaimer on the end of the broadcast, and that the radioplay does not take place in real time, and medication boy told me that I was WRONG and that the broadcast had really scared the old bag who lived next door when she was a kid. I then posted the disclaimer (from the end of the transcript of the broadcast he'd linked to), and got no response. The evasive little tosspot is now claiming that he's never heard of Welles, but still WRONGing people who have more of a clue what they're talking about than he does. I find this offensive.
