For reasons I still don't understand, Columbia Journalism Review recently published a passel of lies about me and LaBeouf. In this personal essay, I set the record straight.
Enjoyed reading this.. and I got a chuckle at my own thought that Roger Stone himself might be: a metamodernist performance artist.... thanks for your help keeping our democracy!
Reading Shia's copy and paste theory, makes me think of the word *citation* and the need to insert in the appropriate places/styles. My understanding of University material is the students first need to learn the history of their majors and display understanding it through repeating it (with said citations) and connecting it with subject of the paper being written per the profs wishes. Copy and pasting is lazy, cheating, and wrong. What does anyone learn doing that in the end? I get it. University comes at people hard, fast, and with volumes of work to learn in a short period of time. Double overload is even harder, faster, and more volumes of work to get in the head, but no one said people have to take a full load of classes. Take three if that is more the speed you want to work at. I could not read all of Shia's words, but I forced myself to skim them and my conclusion is bullshit homework handed in, in an attempt to fake the way through it.
All I can say is you must be doing something right. I'm irritated they don't back off. They are using your popularity to boost themselves even though it is negative. Even though they are lying. That goes from CJR to Turner and every 'coat-hanger-onner' in between.

Ah, so all my cuting and pasting from other people's Twitter and FB feeds was metamodernistic art? Phew!
