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.
