Prostitution and Unemployment in Germany
This page is a work in progress. When complete, it will be a one-stop shop for updates on Clare Chapman’s prostitution and unemployment hoax, which ran in the London Daily Telegraph on Sunday, January 30, 2005.
Until it is complete, I recommend starting here and here, and then reading the Chicago Boyz discussion on the likely origins of the hoax. Long story short: Chapman’s story was almost certainly cobbled together from this July 30, 2003 article from Jungle-World (translation here) and this December 18, 2004 article from the Berlin Tageszeitung (translation here).
