TO TELL THE TRUTH

STEPHEN Glass, who was fired from the New Republic in 1998 for fabricating stories, read from his book "The Fabulist" at Broome Street's Happy Ending bar Wednesday night. Introduced by host Amanda Stern as "formerly a journalist," the humbled pundit confessed to being "a little nervous" before he started. Glass, who inspired the movie "Shattered Glass," was well-received, says our source, and following his reading a gushing Stern told the crowd, "Now you know what he looks like!" "The Fabulist" is the fictionalized story of a journalist named Stephen Glass who gets fired for fabricating stories. So much for vivid imagination.
