More Details
- Summary:
- Tom Grunick is the perfect modern anchorman, with charm and good looks but no background for the job. Jane Craig, the brilliant producer, has the job of trying to make Tom look like a newsman. Aaron Altman, a dedicated reporter and utterly devoid of on-camera charisma, is jealous of Tom's success with the public and his relationship with Jane.
