One of the lines towards the end, in the newsroom:
Reporter: "Is that true?" Sally Field: "No, but it's accurate." The difference lies in whether the reader ends a story with a true understanding. If someone read the recent story without having read the story from six months ago, he would have no idea that someone quitting tennis after an injury is considered "leaving the program prematurely." Because the typical sports page reader would not suspect that an injury would be so classified, that means the typical sports page reader ends up with a wrong impression. But, it is "accurate." |
