Chris Crocker: The Stranger Profile

In this week's Stranger I write about Chris Crocker, a 19-year-old gay kid who, using little more than a digital video camera and an internet connection, has managed to channel his small-town frustrations into national online fame.



This was one of the most fun and heartbreaking stories I've ever had the chance to write for The Stranger, and I have a number of "Crocker out-takes" to post on Slog over the next few days—things I couldn't fit in the story, but that shouldn't be kept from the world. Look for them starting tomorrow.
