This documentary, part of the Investigative Reports series from A&E, heads behind-the-scenes of the lives and daily struggles of press and television beat reporters in New York City. Narrated by Investigative Reports host and producer Bill Kurtis, this program follows New York Post reporter Mark Stamey and WABC's Sarah Wallace on their regular routines of trailing criminals, tracking down interviews, and going wherever the story leads them. Stamey's case involves the murder of Malcolm Ferguson of the Bronx who was killed by police. The case shows Stamey taking a look at the life of a petty criminal like Ferguson but also takes the New York Post reporter down a path of police corruption and conspiracy. Wallace's case deals with an investigation of possibly tainted testimony offered in a trial where two innocent men might have been wrongfully incarcerated.
