In January, the popular radio program This American Life broadcast an account of the experiences of monologist Mike Daisey, who has been performing a one-man show The Agony and the Ectasy of Steve Jobs, based on his research into conditions at the Foxconn plant. And in late January, the New York Times ran a lengthy examination of working conditions at Chinese electronics manufacturers.This American Lifes web page notes that advocacy group SACOM (Students and Scholars Against Corporate Misbehavior, Hong Kong) has released three reports investigating conditions at Foxconn. Mr. Daisey has been performing his show at New Yorks Public Theater.The January broadcast prompted a petition drive by activist groups Change.org and SumOfUs.org and last week the groups said they delivered more than 250,000 petition signatures to Apple seeking a working protection strategy.Today (Feb. 13) the New York Times reported that Mr. Daisey plans to release a theatrical transcript of his show, free to download and without cost for a performer to use it.
