News At Eleven

Last Minute Sales & Specials

Martin Sheen stars as a well-respected anchorman who clashes with his opportunistic news director over the public's right to know, versus the inherent rights of the individual. Frank Kenley (Sheen) is the anchorman who reluctantly helps create a media controversy when he breaks the story of alleged sexual involvement between a high school teacher and a female student. He is caught in a moral and ethical dilemma when his ambitious and aggressive news director, Eric Ross (Peter Riegert) sensationalizes the story in order to boost ratings. Kenley's relationship with Joanne Steckler (Barbara Babcock), a deputy District Attorney who is investigating the case and to whom he is fond, is also threatened. He must also deal with the unprofessional antics of Christine Arnold (Sheree J. Wilson), his beautiful, highly-ambitious, but inexperienced co-anchor. A hard hitting drama about TV news practices, when the drive for rating popularity overwhelms the ethics of good journalism.
