Little white lies

A teenager's blog goes viral but, when her readers find out she's been using a ghost-writer, the fallout is almost instantaneous. 17-year-old Coretta White is a black honours student whose Tumblr, Little White Lies - an expose of her brilliant-yet-clueless (and hypocritical) parents - has gone viral. She find herself at a confusing tipping point of celebrity and success. She's got hundreds of thousands of followers; she's even been offered a TV deal. But Coretta has a confession: she hasn't been writing all her own posts.
