Janey, you're on.
178
00:07:17,979 --> 00:07:19,772
(Jane on TV)
...participating in
this great event.
179
00:07:19,814 --> 00:07:21,315
Oh, what are you wearing?
180
00:07:21,357 --> 00:07:24,444
- Um, it's a Halloween costume.
- Uh.
181
00:07:24,485 --> 00:07:26,779
I gotta say, I think
the adults are having
182
00:07:26,821 --> 00:07:27,738
as much fun as the kids.
183
00:07:27,780 --> 00:07:28,990
It's better than the sexy witch.
184
00:07:29,031 --> 00:07:31,576
'And best of all,
the proceeds go to charity.'
185
00:07:31,617 --> 00:07:34,871
Shaw Plastics raised $50,000
for disadvantaged kids.
186
00:07:34,912 --> 00:07:36,414
'So, it was a good cause.'
187
00:07:36,456 --> 00:07:37,957
(Margie)
'More like
a good advertisement.'
188
00:07:37,999 --> 00:07:40,168
Did Shaw Plastics pay you
to cover that story?
189
00:07:40,209 --> 00:07:41,919
We do this kind of stuff
all the time, ma.
190
00:07:41,961 --> 00:07:45,173
You give companies
positive press, they buy ads.
191
00:07:45,214 --> 00:07:47,800
Well, the Jane I knew
dreamed of covering
192
00:07:47,842 --> 00:07:49,302
the presidential debates.
193
00:07:49,343 --> 00:07:51,345
Mort is covering
the presidential debates.
194
00:07:51,387 --> 00:07:52,847
You know that.
195
00:07:52,889 --> 00:07:54,348
Can't you cover them, too?
196
00:07:54,390 --> 00:07:57,810
Why do you always get
stuck with the fluff?
197
00:07:57,852 --> 00:07:58,978
There's gotta be
something else.
198
00:07:59,020 --> 00:08:00,605
Like what?
The elections in Chile?
199
00:08:00,646 --> 00:08:03,024
Soviet withdrawal
from Afghanistan?
200
00:08:03,065 --> 00:08:05,485
Do you know what it would take
to get people to watch a story
201
00:08:05,526 --> 00:08:07,528
about armed rebels
in remote villages?
202
00:08:07,570 --> 00:08:09,655
Well, you don't really
believe that, do you?
203
00:08:09,697 --> 00:08:12,366
Management made changes
to improve our ratings.
204
00:08:12,408 --> 00:08:15,203
I took their advice
about my hair and my wardrobe
205
00:08:15,244 --> 00:08:16,537
and we went up four points.
206
00:08:16,579 --> 00:08:19,707
Four points
for teasing your hair?
207
00:08:19,749 --> 00:08:22,168
I don't know how many times
I have to tell you this, ma.
208
00:08:22,210 --> 00:08:24,629
It's just...it's the way
the business is now.
209
00:08:24,670 --> 00:08:26,130
I just..
I don't understand
210
00:08:26,172 --> 00:08:27,882
why news had to
stop being news.
211
00:08:27,924 --> 00:08:29,675
Well, ask Nathan
if you don't believe me.
212
00:08:29,717 --> 00:08:32,178
We've made peace with it.
Maybe you should, too.
213
00:08:32,220 --> 00:08:33,638
Janey, I'm not trying
to be critical.
214
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,014
I know. I've got
an early morning, ma.
215
00:08:35,056 --> 00:08:36,974
- I'll see you later, okay?
- Well..
216
00:08:37,016 --> 00:08:43,773
♪ But I don't dare say ♪♪
217
00:08:45,900 --> 00:08:49,320
The last time
I saw my daughter alive
218
00:08:49,362 --> 00:08:51,280
I was giving her
a hard time.
219
00:08:52,448 --> 00:08:53,908
Now who's this Nathan
220
00:08:53,950 --> 00:08:54,951
she was talking about?
221
00:08:54,992 --> 00:08:57,828
Nathan Kravet.
He was her boss.
222
00:08:57,870 --> 00:08:59,872
Well, he was her
mentor, really.
223
00:08:59,914 --> 00:09:03,251
They met when Janey was
at Syracuse University.
224
00:09:03,292 --> 00:09:05,419
Thanks for your time,
Mrs. Everett.
225
00:09:05,461 --> 00:09:09,131
What I wouldn't give
to see Janey on TV again
226
00:09:09,173 --> 00:09:10,633
cat suit or not.
227
00:09:15,721 --> 00:09:17,265
Everett was
something else.
228
00:09:17,306 --> 00:09:20,476
I gave a guest lecture
at Syracuse her freshman year.
229
00:09:20,518 --> 00:09:24,355
She sent me a story idea
every week till she graduated.
230
00:09:24,397 --> 00:09:27,024
- They any good?
- Not bad, actually.
231
00:09:27,066 --> 00:09:28,568
She had an eye
for the angle.
232
00:09:28,609 --> 00:09:30,695
Could find a story
in any picture.
233
00:09:30,736 --> 00:09:32,196
Where'd the
cat suit fit in?
234
00:09:32,238 --> 00:09:34,865
By the time
I hired her at WCNU
235
00:09:34,907 --> 00:09:36,117
things were changing.
236
00:09:36,158 --> 00:09:37,243
What qualified as news
237
00:09:37,285 --> 00:09:39,579
was anything
that got ratings.
238
00:09:39,620 --> 00:09:41,497
Including cute newsgirls?
239
00:09:41,539 --> 00:09:42,748
Before Reagan took office
240
00:09:42,790 --> 00:09:44,625
stations had
to serve the public
241
00:09:44,667 --> 00:09:46,085
present balanced reports.
242
00:09:46,127 --> 00:09:48,671
Hell, there were even
limits on the amount of ads.
243
00:09:48,713 --> 00:09:51,966
Reagan relaxed
all the rules.
244
00:09:52,008 --> 00:09:53,342
(Jeffries)
'Relaxed is right.'
245
00:09:53,384 --> 00:09:55,761
'Looks more like
a vacation than reporting.'
246
00:09:55,803 --> 00:09:56,804
Company retreats.
247
00:09:56,846 --> 00:09:58,222
Better ratings meant
better profits.
248
00:09:58,264 --> 00:10:01,309
Better profits meant
better corporate retreats.
249
00:10:01,350 --> 00:10:02,351
Any idea who might have been
250
00:10:02,393 --> 00:10:03,853
threatening Jane,
the night she died?
251
00:10:03,894 --> 00:10:06,814
No idea. It wasn't like
she was breaking Watergate.
252
00:10:06,856 --> 00:10:10,276
Uh, I think her last story
was about mall walkers.
253
00:10:10,318 --> 00:10:11,485
You see her that night?
254
00:10:11,527 --> 00:10:13,446
I was holed up in my office
on the third floor.
255
00:10:13,487 --> 00:10:15,531
Jane was on
the first, so no.
256
00:10:15,573 --> 00:10:16,782
Did she always
work till midnight?
257
00:10:16,824 --> 00:10:18,951
Evening news
wrapped at 7:00
258
00:10:18,993 --> 00:10:19,952
doesn't mean we did.
259
00:10:19,994 --> 00:10:21,037
Public persona like that
260
00:10:21,078 --> 00:10:23,372
she ever attract
the wrong kind of attention?
261
00:10:23,414 --> 00:10:25,916
Far as I knew,
everyone loved her.
262
00:10:25,958 --> 00:10:27,251
After a year at WCNU
263
00:10:27,293 --> 00:10:28,794
she was getting more fan mail
264
00:10:28,836 --> 00:10:29,962
than the seasoned reporters.
265
00:10:30,004 --> 00:10:31,422
Any of those
seasoned reporters
266
00:10:31,464 --> 00:10:33,174
have a problem
with that?
267
00:10:33,215 --> 00:10:35,509
There's one person
who comes to mind.
268
00:10:35,551 --> 00:10:37,219
[The Fixx singing
"One Thing Leads To Another"]
269
00:10:37,261 --> 00:10:38,929
(male #2)
'The crime has left
two people dead'
270
00:10:38,971 --> 00:10:40,931
'and an entire
neighborhood devastated.'
271
00:10:40,973 --> 00:10:42,266
It's yet another casualty
272
00:10:42,308 --> 00:10:45,811
of the crack epidemic
here in the Philly..
273
00:10:45,853 --> 00:10:48,272
In-in the city of..
274
00:10:48,314 --> 00:10:52,234
In other news, he's this
year's Sexiest Man Alive.
275
00:10:52,276 --> 00:10:53,235
JFK, Junior.
276
00:10:53,277 --> 00:10:55,196
So who made his list
of sexiest women?
277
00:10:55,237 --> 00:10:57,365
We'll have
the story after this.
278
00:10:57,406 --> 00:10:58,574
(male #1)
'All clear.'
279
00:10:58,616 --> 00:11:00,868
The last I checked,
I was the lead anchor.
280
00:11:00,910 --> 00:11:02,078
I was trying to help you.
281
00:11:02,119 --> 00:11:03,329
Let me finish
the damn story.
282
00:11:03,371 --> 00:11:05,164
It's called a transition
or don't they teach that
283
00:11:05,206 --> 00:11:06,749
in journalism school anymore?
284
00:11:06,791 --> 00:11:09,418
Take it easy, Mort.
She's doing her job.
285
00:11:09,460 --> 00:11:11,837
You're the one who hired this
amateur bubblehead newsreader.
286
00:11:11,879 --> 00:11:13,381
As opposed to a
pompous has-been?
287
00:11:13,422 --> 00:11:14,757
Hey, I was here
before you, sweetie.
288
00:11:14,799 --> 00:11:15,883
I'll be here after.
289
00:11:15,925 --> 00:11:17,843
(male #1)
'Nine, eight, seven..'
290
00:11:17,885 --> 00:11:19,720
Have you checked
with management on that?
291
00:11:19,762 --> 00:11:22,223
You bet against me, sweetheart
and I'll crush you.
292
00:11:22,264 --> 00:11:25,851
(male #1)
'Three, two, one.'
293
00:11:25,893 --> 00:11:27,853
An update on a story
from yesterday.
294
00:11:27,895 --> 00:11:29,355
The President has stated
that his position
295
00:11:29,397 --> 00:11:30,731
will not change in spite of
296
00:11:30,773 --> 00:11:32,983
what Congress
has proposed..'
297
00:11:34,735 --> 00:11:37,238
WCNU went from worst
to first that year
298
00:11:37,279 --> 00:11:39,490
and there was
only one reason
299
00:11:39,532 --> 00:11:40,783
Jane Everett.
300
00:11:40,825 --> 00:11:41,909
Mort knew it?
301
00:11:41,951 --> 00:11:43,202
His low-grade insecurity
302
00:11:43,244 --> 00:11:44,954
became full-blown paranoia.
303
00:11:44,995 --> 00:11:46,288
Called me all hours
of the night
304
00:11:46,330 --> 00:11:47,415
trying to get
her fired.
305
00:11:47,456 --> 00:11:48,833
Why not get rid
of him instead?
306
00:11:48,874 --> 00:11:50,501
Thought about it.
307
00:11:50,543 --> 00:11:52,420
Till he won a Peabody
for his coverage
308
00:11:52,461 --> 00:11:53,838
of Jane's murder.
309
00:11:53,879 --> 00:11:56,507
Bought himself another
20 years in the business.
310
00:11:58,634 --> 00:12:02,430
So I get this Bobby Badass
in the squad car.
311
00:12:02,471 --> 00:12:05,725
Thinks I'm hauling him down
to PPD till he realizes
312
00:12:05,766 --> 00:12:06,934
we're heading in
the wrong direction.
313
00:12:06,976 --> 00:12:08,644
The kid starts
freaking out 'cause
314
00:12:08,686 --> 00:12:10,604
we're going into
29th Street territory.
315
00:12:10,646 --> 00:12:11,939
- The rival gang?
- Oh, yeah, yeah.
316
00:12:11,981 --> 00:12:13,482
He's begging us
to turn around
317
00:12:13,524 --> 00:12:15,776
and I'm talking to my partner
about stopping for doughnuts.
318
00:12:15,818 --> 00:12:19,113
Kid wets his pants,
tells us everything.
319
00:12:19,155 --> 00:12:20,781
Oh, that'd make
a great segment.
320
00:12:20,823 --> 00:12:24,744
Hmm, well, there's more
where that came from.
321
00:12:25,244 --> 00:12:27,204
How are things going?
322
00:12:27,246 --> 00:12:28,706
Jane Everett case?
323
00:12:28,748 --> 00:12:30,166
Stick around..
324
00:12:30,207 --> 00:12:31,959
...and I'll let you know.
325
00:12:32,001 --> 00:12:33,878
Scratch my back,
I'll scratch yours?
326
00:12:33,919 --> 00:12:35,421
Sounds good to me.
327
00:12:39,675 --> 00:12:41,886
- Hey, take that off, would ya?
- What?
328
00:12:41,927 --> 00:12:44,221
Looks like you're
about to take flight.
329
00:12:44,263 --> 00:12:47,850
(Vera)
'Check out Casanova with
that hottie from Channel 7.'
330
00:12:47,892 --> 00:12:49,351
Back in the saddle.
331
00:12:49,393 --> 00:12:50,644
Excuse me.
332
00:12:54,231 --> 00:12:55,149
What up, fellas?
333
00:12:55,191 --> 00:12:57,359
Rush dug up some dirt
on Mort Ackerson.
334
00:12:57,401 --> 00:12:59,403
Jane lodged a formal
complaint against him
335
00:12:59,445 --> 00:13:01,822
with the
WCNU Human Resources
336
00:13:01,864 --> 00:13:02,907
October 18, '88.
337
00:13:02,948 --> 00:13:04,617
That's two weeks
before she's killed.
338
00:13:04,658 --> 00:13:07,161
It said Mort showed
up at her shoots
339
00:13:07,203 --> 00:13:09,789
was following her to interviews
and press conferences.
340
00:13:09,830 --> 00:13:12,041
Yeah, Tory says
the guy's a real tool.
341
00:13:12,082 --> 00:13:14,168
Got serious issues
working with the ladies.
342
00:13:14,210 --> 00:13:15,753

That's gonna be
better than the game.
346
00:13:34,897 --> 00:13:37,316
Well, last I checked,
this was a cop bar.
347
00:13:37,358 --> 00:13:39,902
Is that the best you can do?

348
00:13:39,944 --> 00:13:43,697
- Oh, damn it, Frankie.
- What? I like hockey.
349

00:30:00,089 --> 00:30:02,342
Well, it definitely
ain't at WCNU.
704
00:30:02,383 --> 00:30:04,052
I screened every tape
Jane ever touched.
705
00:30:04,093 --> 00:30:05,804
(Rush)
'Could've brought it
home with her.'
706
00:30:05,845 --> 00:30:08,181
That's what
I would've done.
707
00:30:08,223 --> 00:30:09,974
Who packed up Jane's house?
708
00:30:13,728 --> 00:30:16,981
Here are the rest of them.
Been in there for years.
709
00:30:17,023 --> 00:30:20,068
Just couldn't bring myself
to throw anything away.
710
00:30:20,860 --> 00:30:22,779
Did Jane ever tell
you about the last story
711
00:30:22,821 --> 00:30:24,072
she was working on?
712
00:30:24,113 --> 00:30:26,324
Was, um, something
about people
713
00:30:26,366 --> 00:30:28,618
walking in malls
for exercise, wasn't it?
714
00:30:28,660 --> 00:30:30,370
Lil, I got something.
715
00:30:31,579 --> 00:30:34,624
"November 2, 1988."
716
00:30:35,416 --> 00:30:36,835
A day before she died.
717
00:30:36,876 --> 00:30:38,920
People deserve to know
the truth about
718
00:30:38,962 --> 00:30:40,755
what's happening to them.
719
00:30:40,797 --> 00:30:43,466
Why it's happening.
People are dying.
720
00:30:43,508 --> 00:30:45,385
(Jane)
'The people you're
referring to are'
721
00:30:45,426 --> 00:30:47,512
'employees of Shaw Plastics?'
722
00:30:47,554 --> 00:30:48,805
(male #5 on TV)
'Factory workers.'
723
00:30:48,847 --> 00:30:51,391
They're being exposed
to a dangerous toxin
724
00:30:51,432 --> 00:30:52,851
called asbestos.
725
00:30:52,892 --> 00:30:54,018
How do you know this?
726
00:30:54,060 --> 00:30:56,062
Because I have the memo.
727
00:30:56,104 --> 00:30:57,146
[paper rustles]
728
00:30:57,188 --> 00:30:59,899
Shaw Plastics was aware
of the effects of asbestos.
729
00:30:59,941 --> 00:31:03,236
(Jane)
'Can you explain what
that means exactly?'
730
00:31:03,278 --> 00:31:06,030
(male #5 on TV)
'Well, if-if you drill it down'
731
00:31:06,072 --> 00:31:10,034
it means the company knew
asbestos was causing cancer.
732
00:31:11,077 --> 00:31:15,123
And instead of doing
anything about it
733
00:31:15,164 --> 00:31:16,666
'they covered it up.'
734
00:31:19,002 --> 00:31:20,253
Exactly?
735
00:31:20,295 --> 00:31:23,214
Well, if-if you drill it down
736
00:31:23,256 --> 00:31:25,717
it means the company knew..
737
00:31:25,758 --> 00:31:27,176
There's our smoking gun.
738
00:31:27,218 --> 00:31:29,053
That spin doctor, Wyatt.
739
00:31:29,095 --> 00:31:32,807
Bad PR from a big, fat liar.
740
00:31:32,849 --> 00:31:34,726
I'd like to see him spin this.
741
00:31:40,773 --> 00:31:41,774
What'd you talk about
742
00:31:41,816 --> 00:31:43,026
'last time you saw Jane?'
743
00:31:43,067 --> 00:31:44,360
(Wyatt)
'A few fundraisers.'
744
00:31:44,402 --> 00:31:46,195
I told you,
I-I barely knew her.
745
00:31:46,237 --> 00:31:50,658
That why you called
her about at 11:46 P.M.
746
00:31:50,700 --> 00:31:53,244
the night before she
was killed? A Fundraiser?
747
00:31:53,286 --> 00:31:56,456
Shaw Plastics was knowingly
harming people, hmm?
748
00:31:56,497 --> 00:32:00,043
Company falsified the results
of mandatory drug tests
749
00:32:00,084 --> 00:32:02,629
to flush out anyone
who opened their mouth.
750
00:32:03,546 --> 00:32:04,923
And you knew about it.
751
00:32:04,964 --> 00:32:07,175
The thing is,
21 years later
752
00:32:07,216 --> 00:32:08,301
you're still working there.
753
00:32:08,343 --> 00:32:10,470
- What's that make you?
- This is ridiculous.
754
00:32:10,511 --> 00:32:13,348
You people don't know
what you're talking about.
755
00:32:15,767 --> 00:32:19,437
(Jane)
'Can you...explain
what that means exactly?'
756
00:32:19,479 --> 00:32:22,065
Well, if-if you drill it down
757
00:32:22,106 --> 00:32:25,818
it means the company knew
asbestos was causing cancer.
758
00:32:26,986 --> 00:32:31,199
'And instead of doing
anything about it'
759
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,368
'they covered it up.'
760
00:32:37,163 --> 00:32:39,457
I'm gonna ask again.
761
00:32:39,499 --> 00:32:43,044
What were you calling about
night before she died?
762
00:32:45,046 --> 00:32:47,799
I didn't kill her.
763
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,133
"You did the right thing.
764
00:32:49,175 --> 00:32:51,386
Don't make any
decisions tonight."
765
00:32:51,427 --> 00:32:53,513
Got your conversation
on tape.
766
00:32:53,554 --> 00:32:54,639
You drill it down
767
00:32:54,681 --> 00:32:56,641
she was trying to
warm your cold feet.
768
00:32:56,683 --> 00:32:58,643
Interview never aired.
You changed your mind.
769
00:32:58,685 --> 00:32:59,936
And got rid of her
to cover it up.
770
00:32:59,978 --> 00:33:02,563
"I'll be there
in 20 minutes."
771
00:33:02,605 --> 00:33:03,690
She was going
to meet you
772
00:33:03,731 --> 00:33:05,149
makes you the last
to see her alive.
773
00:33:05,191 --> 00:33:08,903
I was trying to help those
people who were getting sick.
774
00:33:08,945 --> 00:33:12,323
I tried.
I really did.
775
00:33:12,365 --> 00:33:15,952
And then I thought about
what the company would do.
776
00:33:15,994 --> 00:33:17,745
Intimidation, blacklists..
777
00:33:17,787 --> 00:33:19,247
People's lives get ruined.
778
00:33:19,288 --> 00:33:20,289
Lives did get ruined.
779
00:33:20,331 --> 00:33:23,251
It takes courage
being a whistle-blower.
780
00:33:23,292 --> 00:33:26,421
Heavy lifting for
a schmuck like you.
781
00:33:26,462 --> 00:33:28,923
Family corporation
and all.
782
00:33:32,719 --> 00:33:35,179
I thought I could
talk her out of it.
783
00:33:37,890 --> 00:33:39,434
I shouldn't have
talked to you.
784
00:33:39,475 --> 00:33:41,811
I want you to
destroy the tape.
785
00:33:41,853 --> 00:33:43,438
I gave Briggs
my word, David.
786
00:33:43,479 --> 00:33:46,357
Look, what the company
is doing is wrong.
787
00:33:46,399 --> 00:33:49,027
- That-that's not the issue.
- So what is?
788
00:33:50,862 --> 00:33:54,282
What are they gonna do
to us when they find out?
789
00:33:54,323 --> 00:33:56,492
Once the story's out,
Shaw can't touch us.
790
00:33:56,534 --> 00:33:58,286
Everyone will
know the truth.
791
00:33:58,327 --> 00:33:59,495
Don't back out
on us, David.
792
00:33:59,537 --> 00:34:02,540
Every minute we sit here
someone else gets sick.
793
00:34:04,459 --> 00:34:06,377
Now, tell me
you're with me.
794
00:34:09,505 --> 00:34:11,674
Alright.
795
00:34:11,716 --> 00:34:14,427
For every one of
those people..
796
00:34:15,595 --> 00:34:17,305
...thank you.
797
00:34:36,449 --> 00:34:38,034
I called Powers.
798
00:34:38,076 --> 00:34:40,578
Bastard was sailing
in the Cayman Islands.
799
00:34:40,620 --> 00:34:43,039
You...told him
about Jane?
800
00:34:43,081 --> 00:34:45,541
The interview
you gave her?
801
00:34:45,583 --> 00:34:48,252
I thought he'd fire me.
802
00:34:48,294 --> 00:34:50,088
Instead I got promoted.
803
00:34:51,005 --> 00:34:52,590
Keeping his enemies closer.
804
00:34:52,632 --> 00:34:55,468
Well, you keep your 401(k)
805
00:34:55,510 --> 00:34:57,303
and Jane ends up dead.
806
00:34:57,345 --> 00:34:58,262
You sleep at night?
807
00:34:58,304 --> 00:35:00,848
I asked him
to fix the problem
808
00:35:00,890 --> 00:35:04,602
so that more people
would not get sick.
809
00:35:04,644 --> 00:35:07,146
What'd he say he was
gonna do about it?
810
00:35:08,898 --> 00:35:11,776
He said all he had to do
was call the station
811
00:35:11,818 --> 00:35:14,153
and the story
would disappear.
812
00:35:15,905 --> 00:35:18,950
No wonder he didn't
stick around last time we met.
813
00:35:21,911 --> 00:35:24,956
(Vera)
'Andrew Powers?'
814
00:35:24,997 --> 00:35:26,499
Remember that
asbestos scandal
815
00:35:26,541 --> 00:35:27,708
you covered up
back in '88?
816
00:35:27,750 --> 00:35:29,293
Looks like it's
making a comeback.
817
00:35:29,335 --> 00:35:30,378
If you got stock
in the company
818
00:35:30,419 --> 00:35:31,879
you might wanna
call your broker.
819
00:35:31,921 --> 00:35:32,839
Insider information tip.
820
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:34,173
- 'Andrew.'
- Yeah.
821
00:35:34,215 --> 00:35:36,092
(male #6)
'I'll meet you at
the restaurant.'
822
00:35:38,886 --> 00:35:39,804
What do you want?
823
00:35:39,846 --> 00:35:41,264
We're thinking
you're a conspirator
824
00:35:41,305 --> 00:35:43,349
to the murder
of Jane Everett.
825
00:35:43,391 --> 00:35:44,350
Murder?
826
00:35:44,392 --> 00:35:45,560
I didn't touch that girl.
827
00:35:45,601 --> 00:35:46,811
I was in
the Cayman Islands.
828
00:35:46,853 --> 00:35:47,895
(Vera)
'We know.'
829
00:35:47,937 --> 00:35:50,565
You called someone at WCNU
from your house
830
00:35:50,606 --> 00:35:53,234
a few hours before
Jane showed up dead.
831
00:35:53,276 --> 00:35:54,443
Got the phone records
to prove it.
832
00:35:54,485 --> 00:35:56,070
(Jeffries)
'You tell us
who you called'
833
00:35:56,112 --> 00:35:58,072
maybe the conspiracy
goes away.
834
00:35:59,866 --> 00:36:01,909
I only wanted
to kill a story.
835
00:36:01,951 --> 00:36:04,203
Never intended for
anyone to get hurt.
836
00:36:04,245 --> 00:36:06,539
We'll let
the jury decide that.
837
00:36:06,581 --> 00:36:08,457
All we want is a name.
838
00:36:16,174 --> 00:36:17,967
You friends with
Andrew Powers, Nathan?
839
00:36:18,009 --> 00:36:20,052
Station covered a few
Shaw fundraisers
840
00:36:20,094 --> 00:36:22,555
but no, I didn't know
him personally.
841
00:36:24,265 --> 00:36:26,601
Think of any reason why
he might've been calling
842
00:36:26,642 --> 00:36:29,228
your extension
at WCNU from his house
843
00:36:29,270 --> 00:36:31,689
in the Cayman Islands?
844
00:36:31,731 --> 00:36:34,066
Corporate bigwigs liked
throwing their weight around
845
00:36:34,108 --> 00:36:35,193
bitching about a story
846
00:36:35,234 --> 00:36:37,361
so sometimes they call.
847
00:36:37,403 --> 00:36:38,446
Mm-hmm.
848
00:36:38,487 --> 00:36:40,406
Uh, this particular
conversation
849
00:36:40,448 --> 00:36:42,992
happened at 1:15
in the morning
850
00:36:43,034 --> 00:36:45,745
few hours before
Jane was killed.
851
00:36:46,746 --> 00:36:50,458
Probably had some idea
he wanted the station to cover.
852
00:36:50,499 --> 00:36:52,543
Looked into your
financials, Nathan.
853
00:36:53,794 --> 00:36:54,587
Yeah?
854
00:36:54,629 --> 00:36:56,339
You bought stock
in Shaw Plastics
855
00:36:56,380 --> 00:36:59,800
two weeks before Meijers
bought the company, huh?
856
00:36:59,842 --> 00:37:02,762
Stroke of genius made you
a millionaire overnight.
857
00:37:02,803 --> 00:37:04,764
What can I say?
I had a good broker.
858
00:37:04,805 --> 00:37:05,681
It was the '80s.
859
00:37:05,723 --> 00:37:07,433
Guys like Powers
were making millions
860
00:37:07,475 --> 00:37:09,602
and you wanted
a piece of the pie.
861
00:37:09,644 --> 00:37:11,229
Nothing wrong
with free enterprise.
862
00:37:11,270 --> 00:37:12,772
Except there was nothing
free about it.
863
00:37:12,813 --> 00:37:14,982
The stock tip came
with strings attached.
864
00:37:15,024 --> 00:37:16,943
Powers was calling
you that night
865
00:37:16,984 --> 00:37:19,403
because he wanted
a story to go away.
866
00:37:19,445 --> 00:37:20,863
And he was right.
867
00:37:20,905 --> 00:37:23,824
Jane had no business
taking that interview.
868
00:37:23,866 --> 00:37:26,202
I know David Wyatt
was no scientist.
869
00:37:26,244 --> 00:37:29,914
I mean, you had taught
her better than that.
870
00:37:29,956 --> 00:37:31,832
Letting her heart
lead a story.
871
00:37:31,874 --> 00:37:34,627
It's called
journalistic integrity.
872
00:37:34,669 --> 00:37:37,463
You don't just take
the word of some PR hack.
873
00:37:41,467 --> 00:37:43,719
How'd you know
about that interview?
874
00:37:45,388 --> 00:37:46,597
What?
875
00:37:46,639 --> 00:37:48,933
The one Jane had
with David Wyatt
876
00:37:48,975 --> 00:37:50,643
that "PR hack"?
877
00:37:52,061 --> 00:37:53,354
Did Powers tell you about it?
878
00:37:53,396 --> 00:37:55,439
Or..
879
00:37:55,481 --> 00:37:56,816
...was it Jane?
880
00:37:59,860 --> 00:38:00,903
I'd never hurt Jane.
881
00:38:00,945 --> 00:38:03,781
- She was like your daughter.
- She was.
882
00:38:03,823 --> 00:38:05,283
Sending you those
stories every week.
883
00:38:05,324 --> 00:38:06,659
Coming to work for me.
884
00:38:06,701 --> 00:38:08,744
But she was still
holding onto something.
885
00:38:08,786 --> 00:38:11,414
What, what was that
you called it? "Journalistic--
886
00:38:11,455 --> 00:38:12,957
Integrity.
887
00:38:12,999 --> 00:38:14,166
It wasn't
as simple for you.
888
00:38:14,208 --> 00:38:17,461
You had suits to answer to.
The ratings to get.
889
00:38:17,503 --> 00:38:20,423
Hard not getting swept up in
the bonuses, the kickbacks..
890
00:38:20,464 --> 00:38:22,717
The business demanded it.
It was sink or swim!
891
00:38:22,758 --> 00:38:25,511
You just wanted that tape.
It's a simple request.
892
00:38:25,553 --> 00:38:27,096
That's all I wanted!
893
00:38:30,141 --> 00:38:31,559
But Jane refused.
894
00:38:33,102 --> 00:38:35,938
She knew that if
she gave it to me..
895
00:38:37,023 --> 00:38:38,816
...we'd both be lost.
896
00:38:45,865 --> 00:38:49,076
[dramatic music]
897
00:38:49,869 --> 00:38:51,329
Nathan?
898
00:38:51,370 --> 00:38:53,039
What are you
doing here? I've been..
899
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:54,707
I've been trying
to reach you all night.
900
00:38:54,749 --> 00:38:57,668
I thought it was time
to take care of this.
901
00:38:57,710 --> 00:38:58,544
Ooh!
902
00:38:58,586 --> 00:39:00,004
So what'd you wanna
talk to me about?
903
00:39:00,046 --> 00:39:02,715
I know I asked
for a celebrity special
904
00:39:02,757 --> 00:39:05,343
but...I have a story.
905
00:39:05,384 --> 00:39:06,427
I have a real story.
906
00:39:06,469 --> 00:39:09,388
The kind that we used to
talk about at Syracuse.
907
00:39:09,430 --> 00:39:11,223
Tell me.
908
00:39:11,265 --> 00:39:13,809
Employees at Shaw Plastics
are getting sick.
909
00:39:13,851 --> 00:39:15,853
I found an executive
who admitted management
910
00:39:15,895 --> 00:39:17,521
knew they were being
exposed to asbestos.
911
00:39:17,563 --> 00:39:20,983
It's a toxin
that causes cancer.
912
00:39:21,025 --> 00:39:23,277
I got him on tape
reading the memo.
913
00:39:25,654 --> 00:39:29,158
Jane Everett,
you cracked a story.
914
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:30,368
We break this story.
915
00:39:30,409 --> 00:39:32,661
I mean, employees get a chance
at getting their compensation.
916
00:39:32,703 --> 00:39:34,789
They get, they get
their medical bills paid.
917
00:39:34,830 --> 00:39:35,956
Right.
918
00:39:35,998 --> 00:39:39,043
So, uh, where is it?
919
00:39:39,085 --> 00:39:40,586
What..
Where's what?
920
00:39:40,628 --> 00:39:41,629
The tape.
921
00:39:41,670 --> 00:39:44,298
- It's-it's in a safe place.
- Great.
922
00:39:44,340 --> 00:39:46,342
I'll need to vet it
with, uh, legal first.
923
00:39:46,384 --> 00:39:49,845
Legal? No, these people don't
have that kind of time, Nathan.
924
00:39:49,887 --> 00:39:50,930
We're exposed on this.
925
00:39:50,971 --> 00:39:52,556
Shaw could take us
to the cleaners.
926
00:39:52,598 --> 00:39:53,808
We need to be responsible
927
00:39:53,849 --> 00:39:56,227
to our advertisers
and to corporate sponsors.
928
00:39:56,268 --> 00:39:57,686
Then I'll take it
to another station.
929
00:39:57,728 --> 00:39:59,855
Are you kidding me?
We'll lose our jobs!
930
00:39:59,897 --> 00:40:01,065
Be sued for slander.
931
00:40:01,107 --> 00:40:02,942
This isn't college, Jane.
932
00:40:02,983 --> 00:40:04,026
This is business.
933
00:40:04,068 --> 00:40:06,946
Now what's it gonna take
for you to see that?
934
00:40:12,034 --> 00:40:13,911
One million.
935
00:40:16,872 --> 00:40:19,583
I always knew
you were smart, Everett.
936
00:40:21,544 --> 00:40:23,254
A million it is.
937
00:40:26,006 --> 00:40:27,216
Wait. Hey.
Where you going?
938
00:40:27,258 --> 00:40:29,510
You were the one who
lectured me about ethics.
939
00:40:29,552 --> 00:40:30,678
Come on, Jane.
940
00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:32,346
News isn't news anymore.
941
00:40:32,388 --> 00:40:33,931
You love it just
as much as anybody.
942
00:40:33,973 --> 00:40:35,391
- The ratings, the attention.
- No.
943
00:40:35,433 --> 00:40:36,725
- Not anymore!
- Come here!
944
00:40:36,767 --> 00:40:38,727
- Just stay away from me!
- Get over here!
945
00:40:38,769 --> 00:40:40,020
Stay away from me!
946
00:40:40,062 --> 00:40:41,522
Give me the damn tape!
947
00:40:41,564 --> 00:40:42,773
