In this episode FoolishPeople bring us a dramatization of Forum by Richard Webb which presents a spectral image of our culture and collective psyche via the reflective portal of an internet football forum. ============================================== Documenting the exchanges between visitors of the site in 2002, this chronological record of a publicly anonymous debate on a sports website explores ideas of moral panic, vigilantism, moral projection and vendetta.
