I wonder what he thought of this documentary. A fair shot at his privileged background, his insatiable desire for crack reporting, and his reign of 29 years at the Post. I read the post and was familiar with both Kate, Sally, Ben and company. They had a stellar reputation unlike the MSM currently and I am blessed to have that experience in memory.
Watching Ben, with his handsome overpowering looks, wide toothy grin, slick tan and uber confidence was of particular interest, attempting to imagine life with his type of upbringing. How easy it was to make instant friends with a future president, taking in all the celebrities, fitting in anywhere, demanding the impossible and getting it with a sweet smile. I appreciate his hard work and dedication that helped propel him to super stardom but he had alot going for him that most of us mere mortal do not. I absolutely live for these more than superficial insights into the movers and shakers of this Universe.
Bradlee's life overshadows most but I give Kate Graham credit for having the guts to hire someone of that caliber. HIgh recommend for demonstrating that you CAN smoke 4 packs a day and live to 93! Amazing profile.
