"Apple Cider Vinegar" is bitter medicine

We may never hit peak true crime, but when we struggle to tell one TV series’ fraudster apart from another, we may have reached white girl scammer saturation. To wit: three entirely unrelated people I know mistook Kaitlyn Dever, the star of “Apple Cider Vinegar,” for the actor who played Anna Delvey.

“Inventing Anna” star Julia Garner and Dever look nothing alike; also, anecdotes are sloppy, unreliable data. Still, you can see it, right? That’s no fault of Dever's but rather, a matter of the mind’s eye making twins of Delvey and Australian wellness fraudster Belle Gibson, whose story inspired “Apple Cider Vinegar.”  Or triplets, maybe, once you throw in Elizabeth Holmes.
