Case Study: The Truth

I listened to an episode of the truth called "Do You Have a Moment for Equality?" that is part of a series of election-based horror stories.  The episode succeeded in giving me goosebumps.  Apparently, The Truth is a part of a much larger group of radio dramas that still exist today (of which I had no idea.) The format was extremely effective and told a really interesting, but extremely simple. The story was maybe 15 minutes long, and introduced very few characters. The thing I was most surprised by was how small of a scale the story took place on: a street corner over a few hours.  It was a story that was best served by a lack of image. The Truth manages to create an audio narrative that completely takes advantage of the medium in a really classy way.
