{"product_id":"f-is-for-phony","title":"F Is for Phony","description":"Fake documentaries mimic documentary genre expectations, unraveling the documentary’s authority and dismantling understandings of identity, history, and nation. The interdisciplinary essays in \u003ci\u003eF Is for Phony\u003c\/i\u003e discuss a broad scope of works and explore issues raised by “fake docs” such as the fiction\/documentary divide, the ethics of reality-based manipulation, and whether documentariness derives from form or reception. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDefining the borderline between fact and fiction, the contributors reveal what fake documentaries imply and usually make explicit: that many documentaries lie to tell the truth, and that the truth is relative. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContributors: Steve Anderson, Catherine L.
