The Soloist

I don't feel that Steve Lopez was taking advantage of Nathaniel, the subject of his article. I could tell that Steve saw Nathaniel's slight delusion as an added bonus to the fact that he had an interesting life story, because Steve could get information out of him more easily. However, I do not see this as wrong. He is honestly trying to tell Nathaniel's story, and the fact that he is a little crazy is out of Steve's control. He showed a genuine intrigue towards him and I don't think he is doing anything wrong.
