In a fast-moving Washington, D.C., newsroom, Holly Hunter is Jane Craig, a brilliant, overworked producer juggling breaking stories, office politics, and a growing pull between two very different colleagues. Albert Brooks’s Aaron is a sharp reporter whose intelligence is matched by his insecurity, while William Hurt brings easy polish to Tom Grunick, an ambitious anchor whose on-air charm outpaces his experience. As Jane tries to hold the line on what television news should be, the film follows the overlap of career, ambition, and romance inside a business already tilting toward image.
