...and the price they pay.
Tonight at 1 1 . Good night.

:33:06
And we're clear.
:33:25
Thought I'd seen the last of you.
:33:28
I saw your report yesterday.
:33:29
We confirmed it
with people in the game.

:33:32
Vicky Owens, Swan's assistant,
and effects supervisor, Jeff Howser.

:33:37
It didn't occur to you
to clear it with us first?

:33:39
I had to go with the story.
:33:41
The papers got the same tip.
I had to get the story out fast.

:33:45
Or someone else would get it first?
:33:47
- Something like that.
- How were you tipped?

:33:49
By mail. A copy of the Dead Pool
and a letter explaining it.

:33:56
- It's already started.
- What has?

:33:58
All the media bullshit.
:34:00
Newspapers print the Dead Pool
and it hurts our investigation.

:34:04
What bothers you...
:34:06
...is that we found out about
the Dead Pool first.

:34:09
You people take Janero and the Dead
Pool, add hype and distortion...

:34:13
...and innocent people get hurt.
:34:15
Aren't you overreacting?
:34:17
I've seen it happen.
:34:19
I don't like the hype, either...
:34:22
...but it happens when reporters
compete for a story.

:34:24
Why don't you start thinking about
your responsibility to the public?

:34:29
You can't kill the messenger
because of the message.

:34:34
I'm sorry, it wasn't my intention
to screw up your investigation.

:34:39
Here's the list. Now, excuse me.
:34:43
Thanks.
:34:48
It seems I owe you one.
:34:53
Dinner, that is.
:34:57
I was offered a job as an anchor
at this small local station.
