Want to know what its *really* like to work for a newspaper? Then see this movie. The characters *are* sterotypical, with the grumpy old senior editor and the zany columnist, but you know what? That's exactly what real newspapers are like.Some scenes are classics, like when Michael Keaton's character is constantly scrounging for quarters to buy a coke, or when one of the editors is complaining because he wants a specially-designed chair because of his bad back.I was a reporter when I saw this movie, and I instantly recognized all these characters as variations on the folks I worked with every day. The maniac energy, the ethical criseses, the occasional editor who lives beyond his/her means -- all this stuff really does happen.Anyone who's serious about being a reporter must rent both this and "All the President's Men".
