A High Concept Movie About Jayson Blair...

Daily News film critic Jake Matthews considers the possibility of a Jayson Blair movie. He thinks comedy is that way to go, perhaps as a "newsroom update of "Faust" might work, with Mephistopheles represented by (take your pick of Blair's excuses) deadline pressure, drugs, alcohol, undisciplined genius, institutional racism, asleep-at-the-wheel editors or - my favorite - the schizophrenic urge to kill the journalist so the man might live." Matthews also calls Stephen Glass' book, The Fabulist, a "theya culpa." Hee.
