FACT OR FICTION?
The Answer: Fiction

Miss Snark the Literary Agent is a
digital media advertising campaign. It is the brainchild of Juan
Lopez, Jessica Meyers and Kim Stevens, none of whom are working
literary agents in New York City. The Miss Snark hoax was run of
of three states, Arizona, Missouri and Florida. Several
organizations, including publicly-traded companies,
publicly-funded nonprofits, and other individuals were involved in
creating and spreading the stealth advertising campaign which was
targeted to consumers of literary agency and other
industry services. The widespread fraud and deceptive trade
practices have resulted in massive layoffs at many publishing
houses around the country as consumer confidence is shaken.
