fairly famous people. Several times, I was asked, previous to the interview, if I'd allow the subject or his minion to view the article before publication.
Each time, I told them, firmly, "no."
That's the way I was trained by a grizzled, old news editor.
I'd apply the same high standards to "art."
Don't put words in my mouth, please. I am not familiar with Penn's integrity.

About putting "words in your mouth"... you said flat out that Herzog has too much integrity to get the kind of permissionn/blessings/"approval" that Penn did.

It sure seems that by default you're saying SP was somehow lacking in that integrity.

I still think that's weird (as is the idea that you know what Herzog has or hasn't done in that regard) but the weirdest thing is you're saying that you think art should be held to journalistic standards.

Anyway... it's a silly argument... and even with all the biases your piling up against it I'll be curious to hear what you think of the film.
