A young television news reporter visits the office of a political official after hours. He has invited her here, because he wants to discuss some matters with her. She has connections in the White House who have leaked details to her of members of the President's administration selling weapons to hostile nations, without the knowledge of the President. Given the severity of this information, she decides that she wants to leak this information to the public. It will be her big break to fame.
This official catches wind of it, and wants to discourage her from leaking the story. He states that if the public learns of government officials selling weapons to hostile nations, there will be a panic. In the interest of national security, he wants to keep this story under wraps, so as to keep the population contained.
She feels that he merely wants to protect his own interests, as he is involved with the group of people selling these weapons, though he is not particularly responsible. He rebutts, claiming she only wants to leak the story, not for the good of the nation, but for her own career. He threatens that if she leaks the story, he will expose her sources, and in the process destroy her credibility, as well as make him a public target for those who may want to keep their future secrets quiet. She says that her career depends on leaking this story, and if he wants her to drop the story, he will provide her with another big story from within the White House, one that doesn't implicate him if he's so worried about his own well being.
Starring Jennifer Lawrence, Stephen Dorff and Steve Buscemi
