2. How does Charles Lane feel about Glass once he discovers he is lying?
-Right when he found out he was lying he started drilling Glass about all of the details and made him take Chuck to all of the places where the Hacker convention took place, and where they went after, and none of it matched up. He seemed to be really upset at first, because of all the press that was going to be coming after the article that Glass wrote.

3. How does Glass gain the sympathy of his fellow journalists at the New Republic?

5. What excuse does Glass give Lane for lying?
-He tells Chuck that it was his brother was the one on the phone talking for Sims, but the reason he did that was because he was under so much pressure from everyone to get the numbers. That Sims just stopped talking to him because of his anger of the article, and he was very sorry for doing that.

6. What is the argument for not firing Glass from the New Republic?
