MARKETEX's definitions

pricktion

Not Fiction, nor Non Fiction, one obscures identities of characters in one's writing so as to avoid civil litigation, and retaliatory violence, when writing about arrogant Public Figures, Made Men, and celebrities.

If the screenwriter had not reworked the treatment, the studio's Legal department would have demanded he return all advances. So, his documentary was rendered as a work of pricktion.
