Stephen Glass was a very smart man. He wrote amazing magazine stories for the "New Replublic" and everybody loved them. But there was much more to his stories than just a good plot and very educated information. I guess you could say that he would lie in his stories, but the word "lie" seems a little small to use for what he did. He totally remixed the stories and made up things.
He stared out in the paper as a young writter, and I'm guessing that when he wanted more publicity he started going for the really far fetched stories. Once he stared writting one story of fiction, he started a totally different story. One story was of a kid who made this website and got a ton of fame by it, but guess what? It was all fake. Yes ofcourse it was an amazing story, but it didnt line up when they started tearing apart his storiies.
In general, Stephen Glass was an amazing writter, the only problem was the lies. If he would have done without that he would have made a great career as a writter. He did, however, write his own book about his axperiance at the New Rebublic.
