00:09:59,500 --> 00:10:01,769
Dude! Take a hint!
181
00:10:03,137 --> 00:10:05,306
Whoa, what are you? 12?
182
00:10:05,339 --> 00:10:08,442
Yeah. Hit a kid,
that'll definitely get her off.
183
00:10:08,876 --> 00:10:10,644
You're into that, right?
184
00:10:11,712 --> 00:10:13,214
Get the fuck out of here.
185
00:10:13,247 --> 00:10:14,782
No, I'm good.
186
00:10:15,049 --> 00:10:16,750
Like there's literally no choice
here except you leaving
187
00:10:16,784 --> 00:10:18,819
that doesn't make shit
way more awkward.
188
00:10:22,123 --> 00:10:23,324
What the fuck?
189
00:10:29,263 --> 00:10:30,831
Fuck this.
190
00:10:31,232 --> 00:10:32,333
Fuck you.
191
00:10:35,136 --> 00:10:36,370
[chuckles]
192
00:10:36,737 --> 00:10:39,508
Oh, my God.
Are you okay?
193
00:10:39,541 --> 00:10:41,543
Yeah. Are you good?
194
00:10:41,576 --> 00:10:42,643
Yeah.
195
00:10:43,144 --> 00:10:45,813
Hey, you need me to walk
you home or something?
196
00:10:45,846 --> 00:10:47,748
No, I live like
right over there.
197
00:10:47,781 --> 00:10:49,884
Okay well, should
be easy then.
198
00:10:51,586 --> 00:10:53,954
You know that guy?
199
00:10:53,988 --> 00:10:54,989
Not really.
200
00:10:56,657 --> 00:10:59,026
And you went on a night time
walk with him?
201
00:10:59,561 --> 00:11:01,862
I didn't expect him
to go all...
202
00:11:02,396 --> 00:11:03,565
Zodiac?
203
00:11:03,598 --> 00:11:05,799
No, he killed people.
204
00:11:05,833 --> 00:11:07,334
Good thing I was here then.
205
00:11:11,573 --> 00:11:12,740
Thanks.
206
00:11:13,307 --> 00:11:15,242
Actually, do you want to come in
for a bit?
207
00:11:15,577 --> 00:11:18,312
Uh, no, no.
I'm good thanks.
208
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,015
Alright. I'll see you around.
209
00:11:38,098 --> 00:11:39,700
You live here?
210
00:11:39,733 --> 00:11:41,368
You sound surprised.
211
00:11:41,402 --> 00:11:43,737
Well, yeah.
212
00:11:45,005 --> 00:11:48,409
Okay what's your name?
Mine's Igor Nowak.
213
00:11:48,442 --> 00:11:50,211
Mia Scott.
214
00:12:00,622 --> 00:12:02,022
What's this?
215
00:12:02,890 --> 00:12:04,158
It's brandy.
216
00:12:05,359 --> 00:12:07,494
It's what you give to people
after shit happens.
217
00:12:09,863 --> 00:12:12,066
Uh, yeah I'm good thanks.
218
00:12:15,970 --> 00:12:18,472
Hm, did your Mom or Dad
draw these?
219
00:12:18,739 --> 00:12:21,710
Oh, she's not here.
Dad's an executive.
220
00:12:21,742 --> 00:12:23,244
Neither can draw for shit.
221
00:12:24,245 --> 00:12:26,480
So, you did them?
222
00:12:26,514 --> 00:12:27,582
You like them?
223
00:12:27,616 --> 00:12:30,017
Yeah, they're incredible.
224
00:12:31,085 --> 00:12:33,187
So what do you do?
Model?
225
00:12:33,988 --> 00:12:35,055
Study.
226
00:12:36,857 --> 00:12:38,859
What happened to your face?
227
00:12:40,227 --> 00:12:42,830
Maybe you're not the only damsel
I saved tonight.
228
00:12:44,298 --> 00:12:49,036
Well, uh... this has been
fucking weird, dude.
229
00:12:49,504 --> 00:12:50,639
I was just helping.
230
00:12:51,272 --> 00:12:54,408
Igor means 'warrior of peace'
in polish.
231
00:12:54,441 --> 00:12:55,342
Hm.
232
00:12:56,210 --> 00:12:58,212
So, you know, just buy me lunch
or something.
233
00:13:00,481 --> 00:13:01,516
Or something?
234
00:13:05,352 --> 00:13:07,154
[overlapping chatter]
235
00:13:11,526 --> 00:13:12,893
[laughter]
236
00:13:22,671 --> 00:13:25,906
[melancholy music]
237
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,002
You all should know by now
that this class
238
00:13:55,035 --> 00:13:58,439
involves a significant
story assignment.
239
00:14:00,407 --> 00:14:02,109
A word of warning...
240
00:14:03,678 --> 00:14:06,180
this is a very competitive
field.
241
00:14:07,047 --> 00:14:09,216
It's competitive to get a job.
242
00:14:09,249 --> 00:14:11,753
It's competitive to keep a job.
243
00:14:11,786 --> 00:14:15,422
If you get it,
and if you keep it,
244
00:14:15,456 --> 00:14:18,560
you will be fighting over bagels
in the break room.
245
00:14:19,426 --> 00:14:22,429
I'm going to treat this class
exactly the same way.
246
00:14:24,298 --> 00:14:27,234
[Diane] Over the next few weeks,
each of you will research,
247
00:14:27,267 --> 00:14:31,606
shoot and produce a 20-minute
investigative segment.
248
00:14:32,507 --> 00:14:35,309
Choose your topic carefully.
249
00:14:35,677 --> 00:14:37,311
Hi, my name is Mia Scott.
250
00:14:37,344 --> 00:14:39,279
I was wondering if there's
someone I could talk to
251
00:14:39,313 --> 00:14:42,817
about writing a potential
article on your company.
252
00:14:42,851 --> 00:14:45,986
Okay, yeah, sure.
253
00:14:46,286 --> 00:14:47,622
[Diane] I'm looking for insight.
254
00:14:47,655 --> 00:14:49,624
I don't want to hear
that homelessness is hard
255
00:14:49,657 --> 00:14:51,258
or that racism is bad.
256
00:14:51,992 --> 00:14:55,195
Hello? Hi, my name is
Mia Scott. I'm a student.
257
00:14:55,229 --> 00:14:57,998
I was wondering if you'd be
interested in having an article
258
00:14:58,031 --> 00:14:59,400
written on your company.
259
00:15:01,201 --> 00:15:05,105
[Diane] I want to feel angered.
Galvanized.
260
00:15:05,139 --> 00:15:07,908
[Mia] What's behind the
millennial rise of astrology?
261
00:15:09,176 --> 00:15:11,780
Okay, yeah, sure.
Thanks for your time.
262
00:15:12,146 --> 00:15:13,848
How do sewage workers
risk their lives
263
00:15:13,882 --> 00:15:15,449
to keep things running?
264
00:15:15,482 --> 00:15:17,685
I want an actual story.
265
00:15:17,719 --> 00:15:21,121
Yeah, I was hoping to do a story
about Senator Bekerman
266
00:15:21,155 --> 00:15:23,357
and his resounding
election victory.
267
00:15:23,390 --> 00:15:25,325
[Diane] And I don't care if your
subjects end up hating you.
268
00:15:25,359 --> 00:15:28,028
[Mia] What do you struggle with
the most?
269
00:15:29,697 --> 00:15:30,665
[Alix] Mia!
270
00:15:30,698 --> 00:15:31,699
[Diane] You are not there...
271
00:15:31,733 --> 00:15:33,000
[Alix] Mia!
272
00:15:33,233 --> 00:15:35,035
[Diane] ...to get emotionally
involved or to make friends.
273
00:15:35,703 --> 00:15:38,873
You're there to do whatever
it takes to get the truth.
274
00:15:39,239 --> 00:15:40,508
-[Alix] Mia!
-[knocks on the window]
275
00:15:40,542 --> 00:15:42,142
What about the accusation
that the only reason
276
00:15:42,176 --> 00:15:44,077
you're in this position is
because of your parentage?
277
00:15:44,111 --> 00:15:45,479
I think it's a smear...
278
00:15:45,513 --> 00:15:47,515
And whichever one of you
bring me the best story...
279
00:15:47,549 --> 00:15:49,684
Hi I'm a student,
my name is Mia Scott.
280
00:15:49,717 --> 00:15:51,185
I'm a journalism student.
281
00:15:51,218 --> 00:15:52,754
My name is Mia Scott.
282
00:15:52,787 --> 00:15:53,621
Mia Scott.
283
00:15:53,655 --> 00:15:54,488
It's Mia Scott.
284
00:15:54,522 --> 00:15:55,456
It's Mia Scott.
285
00:15:55,489 --> 00:15:56,390
Oh, hello?
286
00:15:56,423 --> 00:15:59,561
Hi, I was wondering if you...
okay.
287
00:15:59,594 --> 00:16:00,595
Thank you.
288
00:16:00,862 --> 00:16:02,496
...your segment will air
on the night report.
289
00:16:02,530 --> 00:16:05,365
You talk a lot about preserving
white American identity
290
00:16:05,399 --> 00:16:07,936
but isn't it true that your
former leader had an affair
291
00:16:07,968 --> 00:16:09,704
with a Black woman?
292
00:16:10,738 --> 00:16:14,876
What about your staff's
accusations of discrimination?
293
00:16:14,909 --> 00:16:16,511
[Diane] For the rest of you...
294
00:16:16,544 --> 00:16:19,980
You have defrauded hundreds
of thousands of dollars.
295
00:16:20,013 --> 00:16:21,215
Do you care to comment?
296
00:16:21,248 --> 00:16:22,584
I have no comment at this time.
297
00:16:22,617 --> 00:16:24,919
Isn't that hugely ironic
given your own company's...
298
00:16:24,953 --> 00:16:27,655
[Diane] You'll be lucky if you
get a letter of recommendation.
299
00:16:34,461 --> 00:16:37,565
[Diane] We believe journalists
like yourself are so important.
300
00:16:37,599 --> 00:16:40,200
The senator thinks of you
as bastions of our democracy
301
00:16:40,234 --> 00:16:42,336
and the fact that you are
pursuing this profession
302
00:16:42,369 --> 00:16:45,773
should be a source
of real pride.
303
00:16:45,807 --> 00:16:49,243
However, we get so many
interview requests from so many
304
00:16:49,276 --> 00:16:52,279
reputable publications
and even they often-
305
00:16:52,312 --> 00:17:00,053
[hangs up]
306
00:17:00,087 --> 00:17:01,488
You're early.
307
00:17:03,992 --> 00:17:05,627
With nothing to show for it.
308
00:17:05,660 --> 00:17:07,394
I'm working on it.
309
00:17:09,029 --> 00:17:10,899
You don't need to.
310
00:17:10,932 --> 00:17:12,600
What do you mean?
311
00:17:12,634 --> 00:17:13,668
I mean...
312
00:17:15,770 --> 00:17:18,038
if you want to drop the class
there's no shame in it.
313
00:17:18,071 --> 00:17:19,908
No, no no no.
I want to be here.
314
00:17:19,941 --> 00:17:22,442
I put you in a really
tough spot,
315
00:17:22,476 --> 00:17:25,145
giving you a place when I wasn't
sure if it was for you.
316
00:17:25,178 --> 00:17:28,348
It's for me.
It's for me.
317
00:17:30,652 --> 00:17:31,786
Hm.
318
00:17:33,821 --> 00:17:35,455
Who's read Lippmann?
319
00:17:40,562 --> 00:17:41,529
Yes?
320
00:17:41,563 --> 00:17:43,096
The Almond-Lippmann
consensus states...
321
00:17:43,130 --> 00:17:44,732
I'm sorry, can someone get
this girl a megaphone?
322
00:17:44,766 --> 00:17:46,968
I can't hear you.
You want to try that again?
323
00:17:47,001 --> 00:17:48,302
Louder?
324
00:17:51,506 --> 00:17:53,942
The Almond-Lippmann consensus
states that public opinion
325
00:17:53,975 --> 00:17:55,810
is volatile and irrational
and...
326
00:17:55,843 --> 00:17:58,111
Oh, it was the text.
327
00:17:58,145 --> 00:18:01,381
Does anyone want to offer
some actual insight?
328
00:18:06,988 --> 00:18:08,355
Yes?
329
00:18:09,591 --> 00:18:12,694
Well I think that one of the
problems with the consensus
330
00:18:12,727 --> 00:18:15,897
is that it relies on the idea
that people's views
331
00:18:15,930 --> 00:18:18,533
are easily shifted.
332
00:18:18,566 --> 00:18:19,601
And?
333
00:18:21,069 --> 00:18:24,706
And when you look
at voting records
334
00:18:24,739 --> 00:18:30,612
or electoral races
or at Page and Shapiro
survey suggests that...
335
00:18:30,645 --> 00:18:33,748
[dramatic music]
336
00:18:34,816 --> 00:18:36,416
Someone challenge her.
337
00:18:38,251 --> 00:18:40,054
She goes really hard.
338
00:18:40,088 --> 00:18:42,122
So did you.
339
00:18:42,155 --> 00:18:45,258
Well, I'm just glad the words
came out.
340
00:18:45,292 --> 00:18:47,762
Fifty-fifty it was going
to be puke.
341
00:18:50,263 --> 00:18:54,869
Hey so guess what?
My story came through.
342
00:18:54,902 --> 00:18:56,638
The senator's office?
343
00:18:56,671 --> 00:18:58,338
Mhmm.
344
00:18:58,372 --> 00:19:01,843
They ghosted me.
Dumped me by a voicemail.
345
00:19:01,876 --> 00:19:04,144
Oh well I guess
I just got lucky.
346
00:19:04,177 --> 00:19:05,479
I found a source on the inside
347
00:19:05,513 --> 00:19:06,981
with some juice
they want to share.
348
00:19:07,015 --> 00:19:08,415
You already knew
someone there?
349
00:19:08,448 --> 00:19:11,753
I wish. I just asked nicely.
350
00:19:11,786 --> 00:19:15,155
Sounds excellent, Connolly.
Good work today.
351
00:19:20,260 --> 00:19:22,229
[water running]
352
00:19:27,035 --> 00:19:28,503
Is everything okay?
353
00:19:32,305 --> 00:19:33,841
[phone vibrates and dings]
354
00:19:42,717 --> 00:19:44,418
Okay, done my half.
355
00:19:50,457 --> 00:19:54,729
Hey, do you remember, um,
Charlotte Nowak?
356
00:19:55,228 --> 00:19:58,032
Yeah, the famous

You are a journalist?
902
00:57:50,771 --> 00:57:54,008
You've come in here to open
old wounds?
903
00:57:57,712 --> 00:57:59,981
You think she's writing
about you?
904
00:58:07,254 --> 00:58:08,789
Is it for TV?
905
00:58:08,823 --> 00:58:11,258
There's a chance it could air
but it's really not likely.
906

So, you go behind my back,
you come into my home,

you invade our privacy?
908
00:58:19,633 --> 00:58:21,002
I should have asked you first

00:58:21,035 --> 00:58:22,770
You shouldn't be here

I'm sorry, what?

If you're going to accuse

extramarital whoring,
943
00:59:57,765 --> 00:59:59,934
you're going to need a metric
shit ton of proof.
944
00:59:59,967 --> 01:00:03,737
I'm not going to accuse him.
The rumor is not the story.

squirm and stammer and deny.

good with the lipstick

It's okay. It's okay.
1019
01:04:57,331 --> 01:05:00,134
I was the only person in
the apartment at the time.
1020
01:05:01,636 --> 01:05:04,972
Suddenly I heard this screaming.
1021
01:05:06,039 --> 01:05:08,610
Calling my name,
telling me to call 911.
1022
01:05:11,111 --> 01:05:15,949
So I run and I find her
in the tub,
1023
01:05:15,983 --> 01:05:18,385
panicking because
she's changed her mind.
1024
01:05:23,090 --> 01:05:26,059
Now it's actually happening,
she wants to turn back.
1025
01:05:28,295 --> 01:05:30,097
And um, and...
1026
01:05:34,501 --> 01:05:39,507
she was screaming at me to go
and get towels to wrap around
1027
01:05:39,541 --> 01:05:46,013
her arms because her fingers
had stopped working.
1028
01:05:52,386 --> 01:05:56,758
Then um, I tried to go
to tie them
1029
01:05:56,791 --> 01:06:01,596
but my hands were trembling...
1030
01:06:04,766 --> 01:06:06,634
because I'm scared.
1031
01:06:10,538 --> 01:06:14,943
The blood wasn't stopping
and then she was screaming
1032
01:06:14,975 --> 01:06:19,814
at me about what 911
did I call, are they coming.
1033
01:06:19,848 --> 01:06:23,585
And I hadn't so I run to go
and do it,
1034
01:06:23,618 --> 01:06:25,052
and the ties were undone
1035
01:06:25,085 --> 01:06:27,488
and there was just never
enough time.
1036
01:06:34,829 --> 01:06:36,997
That's why I know where you
are now.
1037
01:06:40,735 --> 01:06:42,770
I bottled it up after.
1038
01:06:43,905 --> 01:06:46,039
I didn't talk about it and I...
1039
01:06:47,207 --> 01:06:50,077
pushed people away, I lashed
out, I got into fights.
1040
01:06:50,545 --> 01:06:52,780
You think it makes you stronger
but it doesn't.
1041
01:06:55,850 --> 01:06:57,752
You have a gentle heart.
1042
01:06:58,887 --> 01:07:01,054
And that's a good thing.
1043
01:07:03,056 --> 01:07:04,692
But because of the way you are,
1044
01:07:04,726 --> 01:07:08,563
because of what happened to you,
it makes you vulnerable.
1045
01:07:09,196 --> 01:07:12,132
And it makes you an easier
target for bullies.
1046
01:07:13,868 --> 01:07:15,904
I'm not a fucking target.

they try me again

01:24:29,336 --> 01:24:31,471
Then he would drink
after work.
1250
01:24:33,073 --> 01:24:34,976
I had this one friend
and we would go to
1251
01:24:35,009 --> 01:24:40,213
the Chino Hills Mall, and we
would just talk and waste time.
1252
01:24:41,583 --> 01:24:44,217
If I was lucky my Mom
would call on the weekends.
1253
01:24:47,622 --> 01:24:49,089
That was it.
1254
01:24:50,892 --> 01:24:55,730
I knew I was going to come here
and I was going to be somebody.
1255
01:24:57,264 --> 01:25:00,568
My Dad used to say that
the odds were against me.
1256
01:25:01,234 --> 01:25:06,641
Little Black girl,
comes from nothing.
1257
01:25:10,410 --> 01:25:13,848
People don't assume you're
going to be a success.
1258
01:25:13,881 --> 01:25:16,416
And if you do it anyway,
1259
01:25:16,450 --> 01:25:18,318
they think it's because
of who you are,
1260
01:25:18,352 --> 01:25:20,655
not because of what
you've done.
1261
01:25:22,422 --> 01:25:26,226
You gotta make those two things
the same, no matter what.
1262
01:25:29,196 --> 01:25:31,498
I'm Diane Heger.
1263
01:25:31,532 --> 01:25:35,268
Journalist, host of
The Night Report.
1264
01:25:35,302 --> 01:25:41,241
I'm the iron hammer
of interviewers.
1265
01:25:41,274 --> 01:25:43,310
That's who I am.
1266
01:25:44,512 --> 01:25:46,213
That's what I've done.
1267
01:25:46,614 --> 01:25:49,517
Doesn't matter what people
know or not.
1268
01:25:51,552 --> 01:25:53,888
Is that why you stole my story?
1269
01:25:57,224 --> 01:26:03,131
You can pretend
that I stole your story.
1270
01:26:03,163 --> 01:26:06,534
But it was a home video
without me.
1271
01:26:07,401 --> 01:26:09,436
Nowak kid doing fine?
1272
01:26:09,837 --> 01:26:12,439
I made sure that you
pushed him to the brink.
1273
01:26:12,472 --> 01:26:18,211
I made sure that you edited
in the right direction.
1274
01:26:18,245 --> 01:26:21,214
Because that's what made
the story work.
1275
01:26:22,449 --> 01:26:24,919
And if you stick with me,
you will keep working.
1276
01:26:25,385 --> 01:26:28,856
You will keep climbing
to the top
1277
01:26:28,890 --> 01:26:34,361
until the Alex Neimans
and the Kim Connollys,
1278
01:26:34,394 --> 01:26:37,497
they'll be sitting on the other
side of your desk.
1279
01:26:40,300 --> 01:26:43,838
Laughing like you're
their best friend,
1280
01:26:44,504 --> 01:26:47,675
and it won't matter that
you screwed them over.
1281
01:26:50,812 --> 01:26:54,515
It doesn't matter the bridges
that you burn to get there.
1282
01:26:54,549 --> 01:26:57,552
Everyone else is just going to
build them back for you anyway.
1283
01:26:59,352 --> 01:27:01,321
Success is not the reward.
1284
01:27:01,856 --> 01:27:09,931
Success is a resource and if
people need something from you,
1285
01:27:09,964 --> 01:27:11,799
then you are never alone.
1286
01:27:20,074 --> 01:27:23,410
Yeah, um, get back to work.
1287
01:27:42,196 --> 01:27:47,769
[Diane] Journalism isn't
a vocation, it's a persona.
1288
01:27:47,802 --> 01:27:50,538
It has to be.
1289
01:27:50,571 --> 01:27:52,073
You're trying to wrangle
1290
01:27:52,106 --> 01:27:55,610
deep uncomfortable truths
from people.
1291
01:27:56,110 --> 01:27:57,578
Truth that if revealed
1292
01:27:57,612 --> 01:28:00,413
can change the course
of their lives.
1293
01:28:02,315 --> 01:28:04,652
Takes a particular
kind of person.
1294
01:28:18,633 --> 01:28:21,636
They'll be sitting on
the other side of your desk,
1295
01:28:23,303 --> 01:28:26,908
laughing like you're
their best friend.
1296
01:28:28,943 --> 01:28:32,647
And it won't matter that
you screwed them over.
1297
01:28:33,514 --> 01:28:36,584
It doesn't matter the bridges
that you burn to get there.
1298
01:28:37,718 --> 01:28:40,721
Is that why you stole my story?
1299
01:28:41,255 --> 01:28:42,557
There's always going to be
1300
01:28:42,590 --> 01:28:45,593
useless little weasels
like Elliott.
1301
01:28:46,928 --> 01:28:52,733
You useless little weasel.
You useless weasel.
1302
01:28:53,534 --> 01:28:58,906
You obsess over every
tiny little ethical detail.
1303
01:29:01,209 --> 01:29:04,111
But it was a home video
without me.
1304
01:29:08,149 --> 01:29:09,884
Nowak kid doing fine?
1305
01:29:11,085 --> 01:29:13,386
I pushed him to the brink.
1306
01:29:13,420 --> 01:29:17,592
I edited in the right direction.
1307
01:29:17,625 --> 01:29:20,795
Because that's what made
the story work.
1308
01:29:22,897 --> 01:29:27,434
It's a rare trait,
doing what needs to be done.
1309
01:29:29,103 --> 01:29:30,938
Your goal first.
1310
01:29:33,107 --> 01:29:35,142
I will keep climbing,
1311
01:29:36,844 --> 01:29:40,081
and it won't matter
that I screwed you over.
1312
01:29:40,715 --> 01:29:42,917
Coming up next,
The Night Report.
1313
01:29:43,383 --> 01:29:46,587
[Diane] It doesn't
matter the bridges
that I burn to get there.
1314
01:29:46,954 --> 01:29:48,388
[voicemail] Hey,
you've reached Kim.
1315
01:29:48,421 --> 01:29:49,523
Leave a message
after the beep.
1316
01:29:50,524 --> 01:29:53,694
[Diane] Everyone else
is just going to build
them back for me anyway.
1317
01:29:56,797 --> 01:30:01,636
Because I'm Diane Heger,
host of The Night Report.
1318
01:30:02,203 --> 01:30:03,403
Hey.
1319
01:30:03,436 --> 01:30:05,840
[Diane] I'm the iron hammer
of interviewers.
1320
01:30:07,341 --> 01:30:08,776
Please.
1321
01:30:15,316 --> 01:30:16,651
[radio] And this is coming
in right now,
1322
01:30:16,684 --> 01:30:20,688
breaking news about renowned
TNR host Diane Heger.
1323
01:30:22,990 --> 01:30:26,193
[Diane] You can pretend
that I stole your story.
1324
01:30:27,061 --> 01:30:28,896
Where is everybody?
1325
01:30:28,930 --> 01:30:31,198
No, I need Kate to stand
in for Diane tonight.
1326
01:30:31,232 --> 01:30:32,566
What are you talking about?
1327
01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:34,434
The fuck did you do?
1328
01:30:35,403 --> 01:30:36,971
No no, when can she get here?
1329
01:30:42,009 --> 01:30:44,278
Good evening,
I'm Kate Merriweather
1330
01:30:44,312 --> 01:30:46,446
and you're watching TNR.
1331
01:30:48,716 --> 01:30:52,620
[dramatic music intensifies]
1332
01:30:54,822 --> 01:30:56,891
[Diane] So I stole your story.
1333
01:31:00,294 --> 01:31:01,996
Get back to work.
1334
01:31:05,599 --> 01:31:06,834
[reporters clamoring]
1335
01:31:06,867 --> 01:31:08,302
-How do you respond to
the released reporting?
1336
01:31:08,336 --> 01:31:09,637
-Are there discussions about
your future at the network?
1337
01:31:09,670 --> 01:31:11,238
-How many other stories
have you stolen
1338
01:31:11,272 --> 01:31:12,540
or dishonestly edited.
1339
01:31:12,573 --> 01:31:16,210
[reporters clamoring]
1340
01:31:16,243 --> 01:31:19,080
I strongly deny any-
1341
01:31:19,113 --> 01:31:20,548
Please let me through.
1342
01:31:20,982 --> 01:31:23,451
[reporters clamoring]
1343
01:31:23,483 --> 01:31:24,552
-How do you defend
your decision?
1344
01:31:24,585 --> 01:31:26,486
-Do you intend to issue
an apology?
1345
01:31:27,088 --> 01:31:29,423
-Do you feel ashamed
of stealing this story?
1346
01:31:29,457 --> 01:31:32,193
-Ms. Heger were you driven
to do this...
