Cheap Truth 'Zine
(1983-1986)
 
"Cyberpunk's one-page propaganda organ, Cheap Truth, was given
away free to anyone who asked for it. Cheap Truth was never
copyrighted; photocopy 'piracy' was actively encouraged. Cheap Truth
deliberately mocked established [SF gurus] and urged every soul within
earshot to boot up a word-processor and join the cause."
