This was a great documentary. She is an incredible woman and she really was a force to be reckoned with. She asked the tough questions and she really did get them off their toes.

I can only imagine the stories she has to tell. Oh to be a fly on the wall kind of things.

I will too. Helen Thomas has an amazing history and her start in the news business is fascinating. Not sure if anyone is aware, but she was the person who began the traditional saying of "Thank you, Mr. President" at the end of press conferences at the White House, something they still do today. Brilliant woman - I really am looking forward to seeing the documentary.

I'm going to see if I can find this one. I've always wondered about how she became such a force in the press corps at the white house.
