The "Official Trailer"

For those conspiracy theorists who believe others wrote Bleeding Edge and Pynchon is not even alive, a "confirming" proof is the odd video that his publisher put out celebrating the book, in which a young man sporting a T-shirt saying "Hi, I'm Tom Pynchon," talks about being "King of the Yuppie West Side."  Could this be legal evidence that the publisher plans to introduce into court later, if/when the company is sued for allegedly perpetrating a fraud, to claim that the Pynchon authorship was a spoof from the very beginning that no one could take seriously. If you haven't seen the video, you can watch it here.
