Noticed in the video he was using a Hassy 500 to do the dirty work.

Give his website a look. Warning contains adult content.

I can't get over his doing one of his nude shots in a full subway car....

He deserved to get arrested, there were probably children in the area, and the @sshole decided that his "art" was just too important. No sympathy for him getting arrested.

The news outlet got the inside scoop, interviewing Hyman and Neill before the shoot and had their cameras rolling to catch the drama.
Sounds like the news crew must have given the tip to make sure they caught the drama, to me.

And the even more cynical part of me says it was all in Hyman's grand plan to get his name out in the press.

Not a bad plan, just so they spell his name right.

This stunt was fishy. Was it reported??????????????????????

It has all the qualities of "manufactured news", a.k.a. free publicity.

Yep. when you go to his website, turns out he has a show at a gallery going on right now. Bet it increased the attendance there too.
