I really enjoyed this film as well. Worth noting is Rosario Dawson's performance, very nicely understated. One of those stories that shows us a world we do not ordinarily see.
Follow Ups:
Ebert compared it to "All the President's Men" in importance. I certainly agree with you about Dawson.
...Peter Saarsgard's beleaguered editor. Wonderful performance.Everyone was good in this - Dawson, Sevigny, Christianson. Poor lad, he gets accused of no acting chops on account of SWs, but this film proved otherwise. Gotta consider the material.

That's why it's so good.Glass wrote a novel and has now disappeared from the limelight.
Alas, I believe the editor played by Peter Saarsgard was killed in Iraq.
Shattered Glass is one of the best movies about journalism and journalistic integrity I've ever seen.
It was Michael Kelly, played here by Hank Azaria, who was killed in Iraq. By that time, kelly was working for "The AtlantIc Monthly". Sarsgaard played Chuck Lane, the editor who replaced Kelly. A major plot point (and true) is that the staff LOVED Kelly and disliked Lane, particularly when he started investigating Glass' shenanigans.
