Jackson Bentley was based on famed American journalist Lowell Thomas. Thomas helped make T.E. Lawrence famous with accounts of his bravery. Thomas--a young man at the time--spent only a few days (or weeks at most) with Lawrence in the field. Whereas Bentley--depicted as a cynical middle-aged Chicago newspaperman--was present during the whole of Lawrence's later campaigns. Thomas--who did not start reporting on Lawrence until after the end of World War I--held Lawrence in high regard, unlike the Bentley character, who seems to view Lawrence only as a story he can write about. Bentley had been the narrator in Michael Wilson's original script, but Robert Bolt reduced his role significantly for the final script.
