Frontline

Mike, angered by accusations of being a lightweight, decides to editorialize. Such a decision sparks a rash of complications.

Word comes through to Frontline that a beautiful aid worker, presumed dead after going missing in the Sudanese desert, has turned up alive. At the same time, a rival network tries to poach Mike Moore, and Brooke Vandenberg interviews Pat Cash for her celebrity profile series.

Frontline is accused of being sensationalist after it links two unrelated murders to a mythical serial killer. Meanwhile, Mike is confused over his fan mail.

When Brian hires an attractive sports star because he likes her, the team’s (especially Emma) moral values come into play.

When a gunman with several hostages holes up in a remote farmhouse, the race to get the best coverage is on. Frontline’s questionable methods bring a storm of criticism, but they have their ratings and nobody got hurt... surely ‘all’s well that ends well’…?

Mike wants to boost his credibility, so he insists on going out on the ‘frontline’ and covers a story in Bougainville. Meanwhile Brooke takes full advantage of Mike’s absence from the front desk by hosting ‘Frontline’.
