Are they interviewing the man himself? or just loads of "friends".

It's front page of the Live supplement and a good few pages in side. Worth popping out for a copy.

Agree.

Did like the comment that his parents still dont know what he does and they think he is just a very successful painter and decorator!

why would you want to ask him about the article? he's a journalist who gets paid for writing stories. f**ks sake we're talking about Banksy. He's an artist in the public domain, not the dali lama.... This journo obviously re-worked some informal chat or previous clips as proper "quotes", dressed the whole thing up as legit and got paid a decent day rate for it... that's what journalists do..

I believe virtually everything I read, and I think that is what makes me more of a selective human than someone who doesn't believe anything.

I assure you I have a thorough understanding of how main stream journalists operate, I'm not blissfully innocent as you imply. I thought people might be interested to hear what the journalist said in response to ALB's post, which is why I gave contact details. 2 sides to every story, and all that.
