Why did Ben Bradlee specifically mention "91 words a minute"?
The Post's managing editor, Ben Bradlee reads a paper:
BEN: All these guys sound like they sleep with a damn thesaurus. So McNaughton was secretly suggesting to McNamara...to provoke the North so we'd have grounds for escalation?
CHALMERS: Yep. Yeah, it was in The Times article. It was a good piece. You should check it out. It was well-written.
(Ben shows middle finger to Chalmers)
Ben hands a paper to another man that he had just read and says:
Ben: Give it to someone who can't type 91 words a minute... and have it proofed, okay?
