00:30:00,755 --> 00:30:03,018
Well, it definitely
ain't at WCNU.
704
00:30:03,105 --> 00:30:04,846
I screened every tape
Jane ever touched.
705
00:30:04,933 --> 00:30:06,239
[Rush]
'Could've brought it
home with her.'
706
00:30:06,326 --> 00:30:08,589
That's what
I would've done.
707
00:30:08,676 --> 00:30:09,938
Who packed up Jane's house?
708
00:30:14,551 --> 00:30:17,772
Here are the rest of them.
Been in there for years.
709
00:30:17,859 --> 00:30:20,035
Just couldn't bring myself
to throw anything away.
710
00:30:21,515 --> 00:30:23,125
Did Jane ever tell
you about the last story
711
00:30:23,212 --> 00:30:24,648
she was working on?
712
00:30:24,735 --> 00:30:26,912
Was, um, something
about people
713
00:30:26,999 --> 00:30:29,001
walking in malls
for exercise, wasn't it?
714
00:30:29,088 --> 00:30:30,350
Lil, I got something.
715
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,615
"November 2, 1988."
716
00:30:35,834 --> 00:30:37,400
A day before she died.
717
00:30:37,487 --> 00:30:39,315
People deserve to know
the truth about
718
00:30:39,402 --> 00:30:41,317
what's happening to them.
719
00:30:41,404 --> 00:30:44,277
Why it's happening.
People are dying.
720
00:30:44,364 --> 00:30:45,844
[Jane]
'The people you're
referring to are'
721
00:30:45,931 --> 00:30:48,107
'employees of Shaw Plastics?'
722
00:30:48,194 --> 00:30:49,412
[male #5 on TV]
'Factory workers.'
723
00:30:49,499 --> 00:30:51,632
They're being exposed
to a dangerous toxin
724
00:30:51,719 --> 00:30:53,242
called asbestos.
725
00:30:53,329 --> 00:30:54,374
How do you know this?
726
00:30:54,461 --> 00:30:56,332
Because I have the memo.
727
00:30:56,419 --> 00:30:57,856
[paper rustles]
728
00:30:57,943 --> 00:31:00,728
Shaw Plastics was aware
of the effects of asbestos.
729
00:31:00,815 --> 00:31:03,905
[Jane]
'Can you explain what
that means exactly?'
730
00:31:03,992 --> 00:31:06,777
[male #5 on TV]
'Well, if-if you drill it down'
731
00:31:06,865 --> 00:31:09,998
it means the company knew
asbestos was causing cancer.
732
00:31:11,695 --> 00:31:15,525
And instead of doing
anything about it
733
00:31:15,612 --> 00:31:16,657
'they covered it up.'
734
00:31:19,225 --> 00:31:20,704
Exactly?
735
00:31:20,791 --> 00:31:23,620
Well, if-if you drill it down
736
00:31:23,707 --> 00:31:26,058
it means the company knew..
737
00:31:26,145 --> 00:31:27,537
There's our smoking gun.
738
00:31:27,624 --> 00:31:29,496
That spin doctor, Wyatt.
739
00:31:29,583 --> 00:31:33,282
Bad PR from a big, fat liar.
740
00:31:33,369 --> 00:31:34,718
I'd like to see him spin this.
741
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:42,204
What'd you talk about
742
00:31:42,291 --> 00:31:43,553
'last time you saw Jane?'
743
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:44,859
[Wyatt]
'A few fundraisers.'
744
00:31:44,946 --> 00:31:46,817
I told you,
I-I barely knew her.
745
00:31:46,905 --> 00:31:51,344
That why you called
her about at 11:46 P.M.
746
00:31:51,431 --> 00:31:53,912
the night before she
was killed?A Fundraiser?
747
00:31:53,999 --> 00:31:57,219
Shaw Plastics was knowingly
harming people, hmm?
748
00:31:57,306 --> 00:32:00,657
Company falsified the results
of mandatory drug tests
749
00:32:00,744 --> 00:32:02,616
to flush out anyone
who opened their mouth.
750
00:32:03,965 --> 00:32:05,358
And you knew about it.
751
00:32:05,445 --> 00:32:07,577
The thing is,
21 years later
752
00:32:07,664 --> 00:32:08,970
you're still working there.
753
00:32:09,057 --> 00:32:11,233
- What's that make you?
- This is ridiculous.
754
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,322
You people don't know
what you're talking about.
755
00:32:16,717 --> 00:32:19,850
[Jane]
'Can you...explain
what that means exactly?'
756
00:32:19,938 --> 00:32:22,810
Well, if-if you drill it down
757
00:32:22,897 --> 00:32:25,813
it means the company knew
asbestos was causing cancer.
758
00:32:27,684 --> 00:32:31,601
'And instead of doing
anything about it'
759
00:32:31,688 --> 00:32:33,342
'they covered it up.'
760
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,175
I'm gonna ask again.
761
00:32:40,262 --> 00:32:43,004
What were you calling about
night before she died?
762
00:32:45,441 --> 00:32:48,183
I didn't kill her.
763
00:32:48,270 --> 00:32:49,663
"You did the right thing.
764
00:32:49,750 --> 00:32:51,882
Don't make any
decisions tonight."
765
00:32:51,970 --> 00:32:53,797
Got your conversation
on tape.
766
00:32:53,884 --> 00:32:55,190
You drill it down
767
00:32:55,277 --> 00:32:57,236
she was trying to
warm your cold feet.
768
00:32:57,323 --> 00:32:59,151
Interview never aired.
You changed your mind.
769
00:32:59,238 --> 00:33:00,413
And got rid of her
to cover it up.
770
00:33:00,500 --> 00:33:02,981
"I'll be there
in 20 minutes."
771
00:33:03,068 --> 00:33:04,199
She was going
to meet you
772
00:33:04,286 --> 00:33:05,984
makes you the last
to see her alive.
773
00:33:06,071 --> 00:33:09,378
I was trying to help those
people who were getting sick.
774
00:33:09,465 --> 00:33:13,121
I tried.
I really did.
775
00:33:13,208 --> 00:33:16,385
And then I thought about
what the company would do.
776
00:33:16,472 --> 00:33:18,170
Intimidation, blacklists..
777
00:33:18,257 --> 00:33:19,606
People's lives get ruined.
778
00:33:19,693 --> 00:33:20,868
Lives did get ruined.
779
00:33:20,955 --> 00:33:23,827
It takes courage
being a whistle-blower.
780
00:33:23,914 --> 00:33:26,830
Heavy lifting for
a schmuck like you.
781
00:33:26,917 --> 00:33:28,919
Family corporation
and all.
782
00:33:33,402 --> 00:33:35,143
I thought I could
talk her out of it.
783
00:33:38,407 --> 00:33:40,018
I shouldn't have
talked to you.
784
00:33:40,105 --> 00:33:42,281
I want you to
destroy the tape.
785
00:33:42,368 --> 00:33:44,109
I gave Briggs
my word, David.
786
00:33:44,196 --> 00:33:47,068
Look, what the company
is doing is wrong.
787
00:33:47,155 --> 00:33:49,027
- That-that's not the issue.
- So what is?
788
00:33:51,638 --> 00:33:54,902
What are they gonna do
to us when they find out?
789
00:33:54,989 --> 00:33:56,947
Once the story's out,
Shaw can't touch us.
790
00:33:57,035 --> 00:33:58,732
Everyone will
know the truth.
791
00:33:58,819 --> 00:34:00,168
Don't back out
on us, David.
792
00:34:00,255 --> 00:34:02,518
Every minute we sit here
someone else gets sick.
793
00:34:04,955 --> 00:34:06,348
Now, tell me
you're with me.
794
00:34:09,699 --> 00:34:12,137
Alright.
795
00:34:12,224 --> 00:34:14,400
For every one of
those people..
796
00:34:15,879 --> 00:34:17,272
...thank you.
797
00:34:36,726 --> 00:34:38,728
I called Powers.
798
00:34:38,815 --> 00:34:40,991
Bastard was sailing
in the Cayman Islands.
799
00:34:41,079 --> 00:34:43,472
You...told him
about Jane?
800
00:34:43,559 --> 00:34:45,909
The interview
you gave her?
801
00:34:45,996 --> 00:34:48,651
I thought he'd fire me.
802
00:34:48,738 --> 00:34:50,088
Instead I got promoted.
803
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:52,960
Keeping his enemies closer.
804
00:34:53,047 --> 00:34:55,789
Well, you keep your 401[k]
805
00:34:55,876 --> 00:34:57,617
and Jane ends up dead.
806
00:34:57,704 --> 00:34:58,835
You sleep at night?
807
00:34:58,922 --> 00:35:01,490
I asked him
to fix the problem
808
00:35:01,577 --> 00:35:05,190
so that more people
would not get sick.
809
00:35:05,277 --> 00:35:07,105
What'd he say he was
gonna do about it?
810
00:35:09,542 --> 00:35:12,240
He said all he had to do
was call the station
811
00:35:12,327 --> 00:35:14,112
and the story
would disappear.
812
00:35:16,723 --> 00:35:18,942
No wonder he didn't
stick around last time we met.
813
00:35:22,337 --> 00:35:25,427
[Vera]
'Andrew Powers?'
814
00:35:25,514 --> 00:35:27,037
Remember that
asbestos scandal
815
00:35:27,125 --> 00:35:28,300
you covered up
back in '88?
816
00:35:28,387 --> 00:35:29,779
Looks like it's
making a comeback.
817
00:35:29,866 --> 00:35:30,911
If you got stock
in the company
818
00:35:30,998 --> 00:35:32,217
you might wanna
call your broker.
819
00:35:32,304 --> 00:35:33,261
Insider information tip.
820
00:35:33,348 --> 00:35:34,958
- 'Andrew.'
- Yeah.
821
00:35:35,045 --> 00:35:36,090
[male #6]
'I'll meet you at
the restaurant.'
822
00:35:39,267 --> 00:35:40,312
What do you want?
823
00:35:40,399 --> 00:35:41,748
We're thinking
you're a conspirator
824
00:35:41,835 --> 00:35:43,576
to the murder
of Jane Everett.
825
00:35:43,663 --> 00:35:44,794
Murder?
826
00:35:44,881 --> 00:35:46,100
I didn't touch that girl.
827
00:35:46,187 --> 00:35:47,188
I was in
the Cayman Islands.
828
00:35:47,275 --> 00:35:48,494
[Vera]
'We know.'
829
00:35:48,581 --> 00:35:51,149
You called someone at WCNU
from your house
830
00:35:51,236 --> 00:35:53,760
a few hours before
Jane showed up dead.
831
00:35:53,847 --> 00:35:55,065
Got the phone records
to prove it.
832
00:35:55,153 --> 00:35:56,545
[Jeffries]
'You tell us
who you called'
833
00:35:56,632 --> 00:35:58,068
maybe the conspiracy
goes away.
834
00:36:00,375 --> 00:36:02,551
I only wanted
to kill a story.
835
00:36:02,638 --> 00:36:04,684
Never intended for
anyone to get hurt.
836
00:36:04,771 --> 00:36:06,860
We'll let
the jury decide that.
837
00:36:06,947 --> 00:36:08,427
All we want is a name.
838
00:36:16,783 --> 00:36:18,611
You friends with
Andrew Powers, Nathan?
839
00:36:18,698 --> 00:36:20,700
Station covered a few
Shaw fundraisers
840
00:36:20,787 --> 00:36:22,528
but no, I didn't know
him personally.
841
00:36:24,965 --> 00:36:27,228
Think of any reason why
he might've been calling
842
00:36:27,315 --> 00:36:29,622
your extension
at WCNU from his house
843
00:36:29,709 --> 00:36:32,407
in the Cayman Islands?
844
00:36:32,494 --> 00:36:34,453
Corporate bigwigs liked
throwing their weight around
845
00:36:34,540 --> 00:36:35,584
bitching about a story
846
00:36:35,671 --> 00:36:37,543
so sometimes they call.
847
00:36:37,630 --> 00:36:38,935
Mm-hmm.
848
00:36:39,022 --> 00:36:40,894
Uh, this particular
conversation
849
00:36:40,981 --> 00:36:43,462
happened at 1:15
in the morning
850
00:36:43,549 --> 00:36:45,725
few hours before
Jane was killed.
851
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,991
Probably had some idea
he wanted the station to cover.
852
00:36:51,078 --> 00:36:52,514
Looked into your
financials, Nathan.
853
00:36:54,037 --> 00:36:55,082
Yeah?
854
00:36:55,169 --> 00:36:56,997
You bought stock
in Shaw Plastics
855
00:36:57,084 --> 00:37:00,522
two weeks before Meijers
bought the company, huh?
856
00:37:00,609 --> 00:37:03,264
Stroke of genius made you
a millionaire overnight.
857
00:37:03,351 --> 00:37:05,005
What can I say?
I had a good broker.
858
00:37:05,092 --> 00:37:06,224
It was the '80s.
859
00:37:06,311 --> 00:37:07,964
Guys like Powers
were making millions
860
00:37:08,051 --> 00:37:10,228
and you wanted
a piece of the pie.
861
00:37:10,315 --> 00:37:11,838
Nothing wrong
with free enterprise.
862
00:37:11,925 --> 00:37:13,361
Except there was nothing
freeabout it.
863
00:37:13,448 --> 00:37:15,450
The stock tip came
with strings attached.
864
00:37:15,537 --> 00:37:17,496
Powers was calling
you that night
865
00:37:17,583 --> 00:37:19,759
because he wanted
a story to go away.
866
00:37:19,846 --> 00:37:21,587
And he was right.
867
00:37:21,674 --> 00:37:24,329
Jane had no business
taking that interview.
868
00:37:24,416 --> 00:37:26,896
I know David Wyatt
was no scientist.
869
00:37:26,983 --> 00:37:30,378
I mean,youhad taught
her better than that.
870
00:37:30,465 --> 00:37:32,467
Letting her heart
lead a story.
871
00:37:32,554 --> 00:37:35,383
It's called
journalistic integrity.
872
00:37:35,470 --> 00:37:37,429
You don't just take
the word of some PR hack.
873
00:37:42,042 --> 00:37:43,696
How'd you know
about that interview?
874
00:37:45,654 --> 00:37:47,090
What?
875
00:37:47,177 --> 00:37:49,179
The one Jane had
with David Wyatt
876
00:37:49,267 --> 00:37:50,616
that "PR hack"?
877
00:37:52,531 --> 00:37:53,488
Did Powers tell you about it?
878
00:37:53,575 --> 00:37:55,708
Or..
879
00:37:55,795 --> 00:37:56,796
...was it Jane?
880
00:38:00,190 --> 00:38:01,583
I'd never hurt Jane.
881
00:38:01,670 --> 00:38:04,369
- She was like your daughter.
- She was.
882
00:38:04,456 --> 00:38:05,674
Sending you those
stories every week.
883
00:38:05,761 --> 00:38:07,285
Coming to work for me.
884
00:38:07,372 --> 00:38:09,461
But she was still
holding onto something.
885
00:38:09,548 --> 00:38:11,680
What, what was that
you called it? "Journalistic--
886
00:38:11,767 --> 00:38:13,378
Integrity.
887
00:38:13,465 --> 00:38:14,814
It wasn't
as simple for you.
888
00:38:14,901 --> 00:38:18,208
You had suits to answer to.
The ratings to get.
889
00:38:18,296 --> 00:38:21,168
Hard not getting swept up in
the bonuses, the kickbacks..
890
00:38:21,255 --> 00:38:23,388
The business demanded it.
It was sink or swim!
891
00:38:23,475 --> 00:38:25,825
You just wanted that tape.
It's a simple request.
892
00:38:25,912 --> 00:38:27,087
That's all I wanted!
893
00:38:30,482 --> 00:38:31,526
But Jane refused.
894
00:38:33,746 --> 00:38:35,922
She knew that if
she gave it to me..
895
00:38:37,445 --> 00:38:38,794
...we'd both be lost.
896
00:38:46,149 --> 00:38:49,065
[dramatic music]
897
00:38:50,066 --> 00:38:51,851
Nathan?
898
00:38:51,938 --> 00:38:53,592
What are you
doing here? I've been..
899
00:38:53,679 --> 00:38:55,420
I've been trying
to reach you all night.
900
00:38:55,507 --> 00:38:57,770
I thought it was time
to take care of this.
901
00:38:57,857 --> 00:38:59,206
Ooh!
902
00:38:59,293 --> 00:39:00,555
So what'd you wanna
talk to me about?
903
00:39:00,642 --> 00:39:03,036
I know I asked
for a celebrity special
904
00:39:03,123 --> 00:39:05,647
but...I have a story.
905
00:39:05,734 --> 00:39:07,083
I have a real story.
906
00:39:07,170 --> 00:39:09,564
The kind that we used to
talk about at Syracuse.
907
00:39:09,651 --> 00:39:11,827
Tell me.
908
00:39:11,914 --> 00:39:14,439
Employees at Shaw Plastics
are getting sick.
909
00:39:14,526 --> 00:39:16,441
I found an executive
who admitted management
910
00:39:16,528 --> 00:39:18,007
knew they were being
exposed to asbestos.
911
00:39:18,094 --> 00:39:21,489
It's a toxin
that causes cancer.
912
00:39:21,576 --> 00:39:23,273
I got him on tape
reading the memo.
913
00:39:26,233 --> 00:39:29,454
Jane Everett,
you cracked a story.
914
00:39:29,541 --> 00:39:31,151
We break this story.
915
00:39:31,238 --> 00:39:33,283
I mean, employees get a chance
at getting their compensation.
916
00:39:33,371 --> 00:39:34,981
They get, they get
their medical bills paid.
917
00:39:35,068 --> 00:39:36,243
Right.
918
00:39:36,330 --> 00:39:39,377
So, uh, where is it?
919
00:39:39,464 --> 00:39:40,856
What..
Where's what?
920
00:39:40,943 --> 00:39:42,249
The tape.
921
00:39:42,336 --> 00:39:44,991
- It's-it's in a safe place.
- Great.
922
00:39:45,078 --> 00:39:47,167
I'll need to vet it
with, uh, legal first.
923
00:39:47,254 --> 00:39:50,213
Legal? No, these people don't
have that kind of time, Nathan.
924
00:39:50,300 --> 00:39:51,563
We're exposed on this.
925
00:39:51,650 --> 00:39:52,999
Shaw could take us
to the cleaners.
926
00:39:53,086 --> 00:39:54,522
We need to be responsible
927
00:39:54,609 --> 00:39:56,785
to our advertisers
and to corporate sponsors.
928
00:39:56,872 --> 00:39:58,352
Then I'll take it
to another station.
929
00:39:58,439 --> 00:40:00,180
Are you kidding me?
We'll lose our jobs!
930
00:40:00,267 --> 00:40:01,486
Be sued for slander.
931
00:40:01,573 --> 00:40:03,270
This isn't college, Jane.
932
00:40:03,357 --> 00:40:04,619
This is business.
933
00:40:04,706 --> 00:40:06,926
Now what's it gonna take
for you to see that?
934
00:40:12,322 --> 00:40:13,889
One million.
935
00:40:17,502 --> 00:40:19,547
I always knew
you were smart, Everett.
936
00:40:21,854 --> 00:40:23,246
A million it is.
937
00:40:26,467 --> 00:40:27,947
Wait. Hey.
Where you going?
938
00:40:28,034 --> 00:40:29,775
You were the one who
lectured me about ethics.
939
00:40:29,862 --> 00:40:31,037
Come on, Jane.
940
00:40:31,124 --> 00:40:32,865
News isn't news anymore.
941
00:40:32,952 --> 00:40:34,562
You love it just
as much as anybody.
942
00:40:34,649 --> 00:40:35,911
- The ratings, the attention.
- No.
943
00:40:35,998 --> 00:40:37,435
- Not anymore!
- Come here!
944
00:40:37,522 --> 00:40:39,001
- Just stay away from me!
- Get over here!
945
00:40:39,088 --> 00:40:40,394
Stay away from me!
946
00:40:40,481 --> 00:40:41,700
