Ron Suskind: And Then What Happened?
(2 of 2)
Your book includes many seemingly verbatim exchanges among officials. Are these approximate quotations?
No. I used quote marks only when more than one source remembered something precisely the same way. And often I would check those quotes later with others. I had just over 100 key sources for the book. Or some of the quotations were written down as transcriptions by someone. There's no New Journalism here.
