Sullivan, a newsroom hack, gets a tip off that gets his adrenalin racing. He can smell a story. He and his more steady colleague, Janice, begin investigating. It’s an astounding story, a scoop. Their editor, Porter, is not convinced until harrowing stories begin to emerge, and then even he has to admit something is seriously wrong.

A young boy’s suicide takes the investigation into deeper water, but all is not going smoothly in the newsroom. Janice begins to outpace Sullivan, provoking his jealousy. When he sees his editor, taking Janice out on a date, it threatens not only the relationship, but the scoop.

Sullivan is arrested and, in his attempt to clear his name, engages in phone hacking which uncovers even more fraudulent activity.
