2. What types of communication do you see in the video? This engaging fi lm shows the ethical dilemmas and stress of producing the New York Sun, a daily metropolitan newspaper. Metro editor Henry Hackett (Michael Keaton) races against the clock to publish a story about a major police scandal that could send two young African American men to jail. He is in constant confl ict with managing editor Alicia Clark (Glenn Close), who is more concerned about controlling the budget than about running accurate stories. Hackett is also under constant pressure from his wife Marty (Marisa Tomei), who is pregnant with their fi rst child. While Hackett tries to get his story, Marty urges him to take a less demanding job at the Sentinel.

This scene occurs early in The Paper. It shows a staff meeting that takes place the day after the Sun missed a story about a murder and other shootings with racial overtones. Instead, the Sun ran a front-page story about parking problems. At the meeting, senior editor Bernie White (Robert Duvall) discusses his preferences in front-page stories.
