The Disruptors: Glenn Greenwald 

"I think not publishing the links puts people in danger. When you have a system of government in which people can exercise great power in the dark, that's what is dangerous." 

-Journalist Glenn Greenwald    Listen 

Stephen Glass Wants to be a Lawyer

"I don't have any stake in him practicing law or not and certainly people- if he were to be able to practise law- people could certainly Google him. It's not like he changed his name or tried to hide who he is... it would be up to the clients."  

-Adam Penenberg whose upcoming ebook on the Stephen Glass story is called Unbelievable

"I think it would be a serious mistake for society if Steve Glass could not become a lawyer. We need people like him, he would be a very good lawyer and I see no reason to continue to punish him"

-Susan Low Bloch teaches law at Georgetown University and was mentor to Stephen Glass Listen

-former NFL quarterback Chad Pennington  Listen
