"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Cover your eyes, urban planners: the Central Valley city is close enough (80 miles east) to count as a suburb of the San Francisco Bay Area. It's got colorful history dating back to the Gold Rush era, a natural inland seaport, and lots of hot weather ... for those who like hot weather.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Did I mention it's a suburb? \u003c!--more-->You could say that blessing is at the heart of Stockton's current crisis. During the housing boom, the real estate market soared, as people who work close to the coast fled East in search of lawns and a reasonably priced third bedroom. City leaders signed off on generous public employee union contracts and took on big debt to fund a big redevelopment project on the waterfront.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, the housing market crashed. As NPR's \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/news/story/2012/03/11/87314/an_example_to_avoid_city_of_stockton_on_the_brink?source=npr&category=economy\">Richard Gonzales\u003c/a> put it on Weekend Edition Sunday recently, \"Those homes that sold for more than $400,000 are now going for less than $150,000.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It doesn't help that so many people drive elsewhere to work, but at least they have jobs. In February, the unemployment rate for San Joaquin County clocked in at 16.6 percent. Although, it's worth noting that employment is seasonal in this Central Valley city because agriculture is one of its economic pillars (\u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkYMXdy01OI&feature=youtu.be\">asparagus\u003c/a>, anyone?).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Naturally, the media piles on. \u003ca href=\"http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,2110115,00.html#ixzz1qbxv4kZt\">TIME\u003c/a> writes \"Stockton has been down on its luck for as long as memory serves,\" as it warns, \"If a deal is not reached in the coming weeks — and prospects are bleak — Stockton will become the largest municipality in U.S. history to go bust.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303812904577297801570813854.html?KEYWORDS=california\">Wall Street Journal\u003c/a> makes a point of picking out Stockton for its national survey of municipal murder rates, even though Stockton is hardly the only California city to lay off police officers lately, or struggle with gang violence. Also, if we're going to talk about a bounce back in murders from 2009 to 2011, let's include \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/kqednews/RN201106081730/a\">San Jose\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2012/02/27/map-a-month-of-oakland-violence/\">Oakland\u003c/a> in the conversation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can't blame the media entirely for Stockton's PR problem, but the temptation is strong for some, especially after Forbes hoisted the city atop its annual list of \"Most Miserable Cities\" in 2011. As we noted on the California Report, Stockton locals were \u003ca href=\"http://www.californiareport.org/archive/R201104220850/b\">up in arms\u003c/a>. Thankfully, the mantle moved on to \u003ca href=\"http://www.forbes.com/sites/kurtbadenhausen/2012/02/02/americas-most-miserable-cities/\">Miami\u003c/a> this year. Still, the sting lingers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Who is gonna step up for Stockton?\" asks Ian Hill, the KQED Newsroom's \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/arts/profile/index.jsp?essid=49504\">Web Maven\u003c/a> - and its lone Stocktonian. He's lived there for the better part of six years, along with his wife. They have no plans to move any time soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We love our neighborhood, we love our house, and we love our friends,\" he says - and then after a beat, \"not necessarily in that order.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

Cover your eyes, urban planners: the Central Valley city is close enough (80 miles east) to count as a suburb of the San Francisco Bay Area. It's got colorful history dating back to the Gold Rush era, a natural inland seaport, and lots of hot weather ... for those who like hot weather.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Did I mention it's a suburb? \u003c!--more-->You could say that blessing is at the heart of Stockton's current crisis. During the housing boom, the real estate market soared, as people who work close to the coast fled East in search of lawns and a reasonably priced third bedroom. City leaders signed off on generous public employee union contracts and took on big debt to fund a big redevelopment project on the waterfront.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, the housing market crashed.

In February, the unemployment rate for San Joaquin County clocked in at 16.6 percent. Although, it's worth noting that employment is seasonal in this Central Valley city because agriculture is one of its economic pillars (\u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkYMXdy01OI&feature=youtu.be\">asparagus\u003c/a>, anyone?).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Naturally, the media piles on. \u003ca href=\"http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,2110115,00.html#ixzz1qbxv4kZt\">TIME\u003c/a> writes \"Stockton has been down on its luck for as long as memory serves,\" as it warns, \"If a deal is not reached in the coming weeks — and prospects are bleak — Stockton will become the largest municipality in U.S. history to go bust.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303812904577297801570813854.html?KEYWORDS=california\">Wall Street Journal\u003c/a> makes a point of picking out Stockton for its national survey of municipal murder rates, even though Stockton is hardly the only California city to lay off police officers lately, or struggle with gang violence. Also, if we're going to talk about a bounce back in murders from 2009 to 2011, let's include \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/kqednews/RN201106081730/a\">San Jose\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2012/02/27/map-a-month-of-oakland-violence/\">Oakland\u003c/a> in the conversation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can't blame the media entirely for Stockton's PR problem, but the temptation is strong for some, especially after Forbes hoisted the city atop its annual list of \"Most Miserable Cities\" in 2011. As we noted on the California Report, Stockton locals were \u003ca href=\"http://www.californiareport.org/archive/R201104220850/b\">up in arms\u003c/a>. Thankfully, the mantle moved on to \u003ca href=\"http://www.forbes.com/sites/kurtbadenhausen/2012/02/02/americas-most-miserable-cities/\">Miami\u003c/a> this year. Still, the sting lingers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Who is gonna step up for Stockton?\" asks Ian Hill, the KQED Newsroom's \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/arts/profile/index.jsp?essid=49504\">Web Maven\u003c/a> - and its lone Stocktonian. He's lived there for the better part of six years, along with his wife. They have no plans to move any time soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We love our neighborhood, we love our house, and we love our friends,\" he says - and then after a beat, \"not necessarily in that order.\"\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

On the back side of the state's largest state park, \u003ca href=\"http://parks.ca.gov/?page_id=638\">Anza-Borrego\u003c/a>, there's a giant sink hole full of tilapia known as the Salton Sea.

Specifically, the Sierra Club and the Center for Biological Diversity are suing the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and the developer, Black Emerald Properties, in Superior Court, over a 4,918-acre project that would include up to 16,655 dwelling units and 5 million square feet of commercial space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"As county planners acknowledged, the project and its 40,000 or more residents would form an entirely new town, which would be constructed between the failing Salton Sea on the east and the sensitive wilderness lands of Anza Borrego State Park and the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument on the west,\" the complaint states... \"This massive influx of people, and the resulting traffic, will lead to an increase in air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions in a region that already had some of the nation's highest air pollution levels. It will also catalyze more growth and cause significant new impacts on nearby parks, biological resources and cultural resources.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The plaintiffs claim \"Travertine Point,\" and the county's approval of it in February, and its 3,000-page environmental impact report (excluding appendices), violated both the California Environmental Quality Act and the California Code of Regulations.

Specifically, the Sierra Club and the Center for Biological Diversity are suing the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and the developer, Black Emerald Properties, in Superior Court, over a 4,918-acre project that would include up to 16,655 dwelling units and 5 million square feet of commercial space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"As county planners acknowledged, the project and its 40,000 or more residents would form an entirely new town, which would be constructed between the failing Salton Sea on the east and the sensitive wilderness lands of Anza Borrego State Park and the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument on the west,\" the complaint states... \"This massive influx of people, and the resulting traffic, will lead to an increase in air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions in a region that already had some of the nation's highest air pollution levels. It will also catalyze more growth and cause significant new impacts on nearby parks, biological resources and cultural resources.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The plaintiffs claim \"Travertine Point,\" and the county's approval of it in February, and its 3,000-page environmental impact report (excluding appendices), violated both the California Environmental Quality Act and the California Code of Regulations.

Edited transcript:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>HOST KELLY WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> Walk us through what happened when you heard about this. How did this all start?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ROB SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> Well, this started because I’m a listener to “This American Life.” I listen to the podcasts at my home in Shanghai. And I heard the broadcast that featured the adaptation of Mike Daisey’s play. And when I heard that, there were a few things in it that didn’t ring true to me as somebody who lives and works in China.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of those things was he mentioned that he went to the gates of Foxconn and he saw the guards outside with guns. And I reported from several factories in China and I’ve never seen security guards with guns. In fact, security guards cannot have guns in China. It’s illegal. Only the military and the police can have guns in China.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s also another part where he talks about meeting with factory workers who met in secret unions and have these meetings at Starbucks. And factory workers in China make about $200, $300 a month, and Starbucks is pricier here than it is in the States. So it didn’t make sense to me that factory workers who make so little would be meeting at Starbucks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> So then you found his translator, and what happened from there?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> I was able to find his translator, and I called her and confirmed she worked with Mike Daisey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> Rob, how hard was that to find her?\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\n\u003cp>He’s allowed journalists to treat him like a journalist.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> It wasn’t difficult at all. I did a Google search, and within about 10 seconds I found her phone number. When I found her, I asked her some of the details that were in the monologue, and she said that she didn’t remember it that way. And so at that point I decided to fly to Shenzhen to talk to her in person. And I downloaded a transcript of Mike Daisey’s monologue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I went to the gates of Foxconn where he went with his translator, Cathy Lee, and while we were there in front of Foxconn I went point by point through the transcript with her to confirm what happened and what didn’t happen. And I discovered that many of the details in his play, according to his translator, did not happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> What kind of details?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> Well, for example, there’s a point in the monologue where he meets workers who he says were poisoned by a neurotoxin called N-hexane. He says their hands shake uncontrollably, and they can’t pick up a glass. She doesn’t remember meeting workers like that at all. And when I confronted Mike Daisey about this, he admitted that he did not see that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> How did you come to interview Mike Daisey?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> I’m the China correspondent for “Marketplace,” so the reporting that I do, I present to my editors, and my editors then presented what they had to “This American Life.” At that point, they decided that a collaboration would be a good idea. I was then called by Ira Glass the next day, and at that point Ira set up an interview with Mike Daisey for both of us at the same time. We actually interviewed him on two separate occasions in the past week-and-a-half.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> Talk about what he said when you confronted him with your investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> Some of the details he admitted that he did not tell the truth about. He also admitted that he lied to the producers of “This American Life” when they were fact-checking this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, he stood by a few of the details in his monologue, and he disagrees with his translator’s account of them. They are the two most emotional parts of his play. One of them is when he’s talking about underage workers that he says he met. The other part is where a man with a hand that’s been twisted into a claw talks to him and plays with his iPad. Those two parts Mike Daisey claims are true, but his translator Cathy insists -- and she says she is certain about this -- they never happened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mike Daisey admits that in the monologue, he says he spoke with 12-year-old, 13-year-old and 14-year-old workers within the first two hours of his time outside Foxconn. When I questioned him about it he changed it to just one 13-year-old, because he wasn’t sure how old the other women were who he was talking to. But his translator Cathy says they did not speak to any underage workers. He says that she would know if they were underage, because she goes to factories all the time and this is her job. She’s been doing this for 10 years, and she would be shocked if she saw an underage worker of that age.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> You say in your piece on “Marketplace” that the reality is complicated because the things that he mentions in his play actually have happened in China, but not necessarily in the way that he describes them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> That is correct. Yes. Everything, well not everything... but, for example let’s talk about the hexane worker. That’s a story that I myself covered as a “Marketplace” reporter. I interviewed those workers. There were more than 100 workers poisoned with this chemical at a factory outside of Shanghai in the city of Suzhou. So when I heard that part of the story I thought to myself, how did these workers travel 1,000 miles away to be interviewed by Mike Daisey? It just didn’t make any sense, because these are workers that don’t have money to travel that far, plus the workers that were poisoned were not employed anymore. It just didn't make any sense to me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> Mike Daisey, I’m sure you’ve seen, has released a statement that he regrets airing this on “This American Life,” because it’s a journalism show, not a theatrical show. What do you make of his explanation?\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\n\u003cp>His message resonated with people because it was a simple message.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> Well, I think it’s an interesting explanation, and I think it’s disingenuous primarily because if you look at the media appearances he’s made since the running of this show began, he’s been in newspaper articles, he’s written op-eds, he’s been in magazine profiles, he’s been on CNN, he’s been on MSNBC and the list goes on and on. And in each appearance he’s allowed journalists to treat him like a journalist. And so on these appearances he says, “I have seen underage workers, I have seen poisoned workers.” He says what he saw, and then that media or that news organization takes that message and gives it to their viewers or their listeners or their readers as journalism. So I think that, in many ways, he is playing the role and has played the role of a journalist. And now what he’s saying is that he is an artist and what he’s doing is theater. I think the message seems to be changing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> And what has the reaction been like for you as you revealed that at least some of this story was fabricated?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> I’ll tell you something. I’ve had a long relationship with China. I first came here in 1996 as a Peace Corps volunteer and I’ve been back frequently. China is sort of the reason why I became a journalist. It inspired me to want to write about it and tell stories about it. I’ve invested a lot of my career in trying to accurately portray and explain this country to my listeners. So when someone like Mike Daisey comes to China, spends less than a week here and later on tells people that what he thought he saw is in fact not true, that makes my job and the job of other China correspondents here much more difficult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> Daisey’s account of being in China and talking to workers has gotten so much attention. How does that undercut the work journalists are doing in China?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> I think his message resonated with people because it was a simple message. It's easy to understand if it’s a black and white message where you know that children are making your iPhones and that the people who made your iPhones are being poisoned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The thing is, these things have happened, but the fact is these occurrences are quite rare. China has 1.2 million people right now making Apple products in the country. I think that in order to understand what life is like for all of these people, you have to just sit and think about the scale of this. At what point in our own country’s history have we had 1.2 million people making one product? Or one product for one company? I don’t think we’re ever had that. And so this is something I think that’s very complicated to understand. It’s complicated to understand that, on one hand, working at a factory in China is very grueling, and when you’re ramping up production your bosses will ask you to work more time than you might be willing to. But at the same time, these workers who I’ve talked to on many occasions, for the most part, are satisfied with the work they’re doing, and if they’re not, they can go somewhere else, because right now there’s a labor shortage in many of the factory towns in China.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So I think that’s a complicated message, and that doesn’t resonate as easily as this simple message that he’s putting out there which is: iPhones are made by children, Apple bad, Foxconn bad. One of my sources told me, “sign a petition, and now you’re good.” That’s a simple message.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Edited transcript:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>HOST KELLY WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> Walk us through what happened when you heard about this. How did this all start?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ROB SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> Well, this started because I’m a listener to “This American Life.” I listen to the podcasts at my home in Shanghai. And I heard the broadcast that featured the adaptation of Mike Daisey’s play. And when I heard that, there were a few things in it that didn’t ring true to me as somebody who lives and works in China.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of those things was he mentioned that he went to the gates of Foxconn and he saw the guards outside with guns. And I reported from several factories in China and I’ve never seen security guards with guns. In fact, security guards cannot have guns in China. It’s illegal. Only the military and the police can have guns in China.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s also another part where he talks about meeting with factory workers who met in secret unions and have these meetings at Starbucks. And factory workers in China make about $200, $300 a month, and Starbucks is pricier here than it is in the States. So it didn’t make sense to me that factory workers who make so little would be meeting at Starbucks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> So then you found his translator, and what happened from there?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> I was able to find his translator, and I called her and confirmed she worked with Mike Daisey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> Rob, how hard was that to find her?\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\n\u003cp>He’s allowed journalists to treat him like a journalist.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> It wasn’t difficult at all. I did a Google search, and within about 10 seconds I found her phone number. When I found her, I asked her some of the details that were in the monologue, and she said that she didn’t remember it that way. And so at that point I decided to fly to Shenzhen to talk to her in person. And I downloaded a transcript of Mike Daisey’s monologue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I went to the gates of Foxconn where he went with his translator, Cathy Lee, and while we were there in front of Foxconn I went point by point through the transcript with her to confirm what happened and what didn’t happen. And I discovered that many of the details in his play, according to his translator, did not happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> What kind of details?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> Well, for example, there’s a point in the monologue where he meets workers who he says were poisoned by a neurotoxin called N-hexane. He says their hands shake uncontrollably, and they can’t pick up a glass. She doesn’t remember meeting workers like that at all. And when I confronted Mike Daisey about this, he admitted that he did not see that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> How did you come to interview Mike Daisey?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> I’m the China correspondent for “Marketplace,” so the reporting that I do, I present to my editors, and my editors then presented what they had to “This American Life.” At that point, they decided that a collaboration would be a good idea. I was then called by Ira Glass the next day, and at that point Ira set up an interview with Mike Daisey for both of us at the same time. We actually interviewed him on two separate occasions in the past week-and-a-half.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> Talk about what he said when you confronted him with your investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> Some of the details he admitted that he did not tell the truth about. He also admitted that he lied to the producers of “This American Life” when they were fact-checking this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, he stood by a few of the details in his monologue, and he disagrees with his translator’s account of them. They are the two most emotional parts of his play. One of them is when he’s talking about underage workers that he says he met. The other part is where a man with a hand that’s been twisted into a claw talks to him and plays with his iPad. Those two parts Mike Daisey claims are true, but his translator Cathy insists -- and she says she is certain about this -- they never happened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mike Daisey admits that in the monologue, he says he spoke with 12-year-old, 13-year-old and 14-year-old workers within the first two hours of his time outside Foxconn. When I questioned him about it he changed it to just one 13-year-old, because he wasn’t sure how old the other women were who he was talking to. But his translator Cathy says they did not speak to any underage workers. He says that she would know if they were underage, because she goes to factories all the time and this is her job. She’s been doing this for 10 years, and she would be shocked if she saw an underage worker of that age.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> You say in your piece on “Marketplace” that the reality is complicated because the things that he mentions in his play actually have happened in China, but not necessarily in the way that he describes them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> That is correct. Yes. Everything, well not everything... but, for example let’s talk about the hexane worker. That’s a story that I myself covered as a “Marketplace” reporter. I interviewed those workers. There were more than 100 workers poisoned with this chemical at a factory outside of Shanghai in the city of Suzhou. So when I heard that part of the story I thought to myself, how did these workers travel 1,000 miles away to be interviewed by Mike Daisey? It just didn’t make any sense, because these are workers that don’t have money to travel that far, plus the workers that were poisoned were not employed anymore. It just didn't make any sense to me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> Mike Daisey, I’m sure you’ve seen, has released a statement that he regrets airing this on “This American Life,” because it’s a journalism show, not a theatrical show. What do you make of his explanation?\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\n\u003cp>His message resonated with people because it was a simple message.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> Well, I think it’s an interesting explanation, and I think it’s disingenuous primarily because if you look at the media appearances he’s made since the running of this show began, he’s been in newspaper articles, he’s written op-eds, he’s been in magazine profiles, he’s been on CNN, he’s been on MSNBC and the list goes on and on. And in each appearance he’s allowed journalists to treat him like a journalist. And so on these appearances he says, “I have seen underage workers, I have seen poisoned workers.” He says what he saw, and then that media or that news organization takes that message and gives it to their viewers or their listeners or their readers as journalism. So I think that, in many ways, he is playing the role and has played the role of a journalist. And now what he’s saying is that he is an artist and what he’s doing is theater. I think the message seems to be changing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> And what has the reaction been like for you as you revealed that at least some of this story was fabricated?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> I’ll tell you something. I’ve had a long relationship with China. I first came here in 1996 as a Peace Corps volunteer and I’ve been back frequently. China is sort of the reason why I became a journalist. It inspired me to want to write about it and tell stories about it. I’ve invested a lot of my career in trying to accurately portray and explain this country to my listeners. So when someone like Mike Daisey comes to China, spends less than a week here and later on tells people that what he thought he saw is in fact not true, that makes my job and the job of other China correspondents here much more difficult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WILKINSON:\u003c/strong> Daisey’s account of being in China and talking to workers has gotten so much attention. How does that undercut the work journalists are doing in China?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCHMITZ:\u003c/strong> I think his message resonated with people because it was a simple message. It's easy to understand if it’s a black and white message where you know that children are making your iPhones and that the people who made your iPhones are being poisoned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The thing is, these things have happened, but the fact is these occurrences are quite rare. China has 1.2 million people right now making Apple products in the country. I think that in order to understand what life is like for all of these people, you have to just sit and think about the scale of this. At what point in our own country’s history have we had 1.2 million people making one product? Or one product for one company? I don’t think we’re ever had that. And so this is something I think that’s very complicated to understand. It’s complicated to understand that, on one hand, working at a factory in China is very grueling, and when you’re ramping up production your bosses will ask you to work more time than you might be willing to. But at the same time, these workers who I’ve talked to on many occasions, for the most part, are satisfied with the work they’re doing, and if they’re not, they can go somewhere else, because right now there’s a labor shortage in many of the factory towns in China.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Tonight’s This American Life program will include a segment from Marketplace’s Rob Schmitz, and interviews with Daisey himself. Marketplace will feature a shorter version of Schmitz's report earlier in the evening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the original 39-minute excerpt was broadcast on This American Life on January 6, 2012, Marketplace China Correspondent Rob Schmitz wondered about its truth. Marketplace had done a lot of reporting on Foxconn and Apple’s supply chain in China in the past, and Schmitz had first-hand knowledge of the issues. He located and interviewed Daisey's Chinese interpreter Li Guifen (who goes by the name Cathy Lee professionally with westerners). She disputed much of what Daisey has been telling theater audiences since 2010 and much of what he said on the radio.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During fact checking before the broadcast of Daisey's story, This American Life staffers asked Daisey for this interpreter's contact information. Daisey told them her real name was Anna, not Cathy as he says in his monologue, and he said that the cell phone number he had for her didn't work any more. He said he had no way to reach her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At that point, we should've killed the story,\" says Ira Glass, Executive Producer and Host of This American Life. \"But other things Daisey told us about Apple's operations in China checked out, and we saw no reason to doubt him. We didn't think that he was lying to us and to audiences about the details of his story. That was a mistake.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The response to the original episode, “Mr. Daisey and the Apple Factory,” was significant. It quickly became the single most popular podcast in This American Life’s history, with 888,000 downloads (typically the number is 750,000) and 206,000 streams to date. After hearing the broadcast, listener Mark Shields started a petition calling for better working conditions for Apple's Chinese workers, and soon delivered almost a quarter-million signatures to Apple.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The same month the episode aired, The New York Times ran a front-page investigative series about Apple's overseas manufacturing, and there were news reports about Foxconn workers threatening group suicide in a protest over their treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Faced with all this scrutiny of its manufacturing practices, Apple announced that for the first time it will allow an outside third party to audit working conditions at those factories and – for the first time ever – it released a list of its suppliers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mike Daisey, meanwhile, became one of the company's most visible and outspoken critics, appearing on television and giving dozens of interviews about Apple.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of the falsehoods found in Daisey's monologue are small ones: the number of factories Daisey visited in China, for instance, and the number of workers he spoke with. Others are large. In his monologue he claims to have met a group of workers who were poisoned on an iPhone assembly line by a chemical called n-hexane. Apple's audits of its suppliers show that an incident like this occurred in a factory in China, but the factory wasn’t located in Shenzhen, where Daisey visited.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It happened nearly a thousand miles away, in a city called Suzhou,\" Marketplace’s Schmitz says in his report. \"I’ve interviewed these workers, so I knew the story. And when I heard Daisey’s monologue on the radio, I wondered: How’d they get all the way down to Shenzhen? It seemed crazy, that somehow Daisey could’ve met a few of them during his trip.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Schmitz's report, he confronts Daisey and Daisey admits to fabricating these characters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm not going to say that I didn't take a few shortcuts in my passion to be heard,\" Daisey tells Schmitz and Glass. \"My mistake, the mistake I truly regret, is that I had it on your show as journalism, and it's not journalism. It's theater.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Daisey's interpreter Cathy also disputes two of the most dramatic moments in Daisey's story: that he met underage workers at Foxconn, and that a man with a mangled hand was injured at Foxconn making iPads (and that Daisey's iPad was the first one he ever saw in operation). Daisey says in his monologue:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He's never actually seen one on, this thing that took his hand. I turn it on, unlock the screen, and pass it to him. He takes it. The icons flare into view, and he strokes the screen with his ruined hand, and the icons slide back and forth. And he says something to Cathy, and Cathy says, \"he says it's a kind of magic.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cathy Lee tells Schmitz that nothing of the sort occurred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In our original broadcast, we fact checked all the things that Daisey said about Apple's operations in China,\" says Glass, \"and those parts of his story were true, except for the underage workers, who are rare.\u003cbr>\nWe reported that discrepancy in the original show. But with this week’s broadcast, we're letting the audience know that too many of the details about the people he says he met are in dispute for us to stand by the story. I suspect that many things that Mike Daisey claims to have experienced personally did not actually happen, but listeners can judge for themselves.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It was completely wrong for me to have it on your show,\" Daisey tells Glass on the program, \"and that's something I deeply regret.\" He also expressed his regret to \"the people who are listening, the audience of This American Life, who know that it is a journalism enterprise, if they feel betrayed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This American Life and its home station WBEZ Chicago had been planning a live presentation of Daisey's monologue on stage at the Chicago Theatre on April 7th, with Glass leading a Q&A afterwards. That show will be cancelled and all tickets will be refunded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This American Life will air on WBEZ at 8pm EST/7pm CT tonight and will be also be available to stream and download on thisamericanlife.org at that time, and it can be heard on public radio stations around the country this weekend.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca name=\"daisey\">\u003c/a>Mike Daisey responds:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"This American Life\" has raised questions about the adaptation of AGONY/ECSTASY we created for their program.
