Glass Half Empty

October 03, 2003

A new movie out this month depicts the rise and very dramatic fall of the former journalist, Stephen Glass. In 1998 he was exposed as a fraud by his own editor at the New Republic and was immediately fired. In the aftermath it was discovered that most of what he had submitted during his short but stunning career had been fabricated. David Plotz is a writer for Slate and is married to Hannah Rosin, a former colleague of Glass. He spoke to Brooke about the experience of seeing a version of his wife on the big screen.
