Text

START: HALBERSTAM: I heard you were in town.
STEWART: I just got in yesterday.
HALBERSTAM: Good of you to join us. STEWART: Thanks. Have we met?
HALBERSTAM: Halberstam. The Times.
STEWART: I read your stuff. Good to meet you. Stew Alsop.

END: STEWART: My brother’s “compromised,” so he’s harder on the Soviets? Gossip. Spiteful, envious sleaze that doesn’t even make sense on its face. I thought you were a better reporter than that. (STEWART puts down his drink.) Do you know, for a moment there I was actually going to defend you to Joe? But now I think I’d better just say good afternoon, and go f*@k yourself.
