Is Journalist Vivian Kent in ‘Inventing Anna’ Based on a Real Person?

Vivian definitely doesn’t have bad intentions, but she’s undoubtedly tenacious, somewhat self-serving, even aggressive at times. “I will say that the tone was very different than me in real life. Journalists on television are a lot more confrontational. I don’t know if that’s because other journalists are more confrontational, but I would never go into an initial interview and, like, have an argument with someone,” Jessica continued.
