Finally, I finished with Vaughn and so had to turn to Dersh. "And what is your name?" I said, pretending. Steam started coming out of his ears. "Can you spell that?" "Again?" He was so furious. I just had to do one more. "And what do you do for a living?" End

The ultimate reporting nightmare is someone laying this on you, mid-interview: “He told me the next day that he was scheduled to have a long phone call with the New Yorker writer Connie Bruck, who was nearing the end of a yearlong investigative profile."
