Liars Get Rich
In the New York Times today, Clyde Haberman takes on a topic I ranted about last week - the glamorization of people who have done bad things. His column, "In Journalism, Only the Good Die Poor," examines how Jayson Blair and Stephen Glass are getting rich for being frauds, yet heroic journalists in other parts of the world get squat. He highlights some of the under-apprecaited journalists who will be honored tonight at the Waldorf by the Committee to Protect Journalists (which my husband will be attending.)
