“He'd do anything to get a great story.”
DramaHistory
The true story of fraudulent Washington, D.C. journalist Stephen Glass, who rose to meteoric heights as a young writer in his 20s, becoming a staff writer at The New Republic for three years. Looking for a short cut to fame, Glass concocted sources, quotes and even entire stories, but his deception did not go unnoticed forever, and eventually, his world came crumbling down.
VIBE
A gripping, uncomfortable look at ambition gone wrong. It feels like watching a slow-motion train wreck, where every fabricated detail ratchets up the tension and the inevitable downfall looms large.
