Special Correspondents (2016)
Frank Bonneville ist ein Radiojournalist aus New York, der seiner Karriere neuen Schwung verleihen möchte. Schließlich haben ihm seine arrogante Geisteshaltung und sein dekadenter Lebensstil nicht dabei geholfen, wirklich erfolgreich zu werden. Um seinen Job zu retten, gibt er vor, sich ins Krisengebiet von Ecuador zu begeben und direkt von der Front zu berichten. Aber in Wirklichkeit macht er es sich mit seinem Kollegen Ian Finch in einem Gebäude direkt gegenüber seines Senders bequem und schickt unbemerkt falsche Nachrichten durch den Äther. Ihr falsches Spiel droht allerdings aufzufliegen, als Bonnevilles Rivale Baker die beiden im Fernsehen für vermisst erklärt und sie prompt zu Helden der Nation erklärt werden, nach denen gesucht werden müsste. Für Bonneville und Finch gibt es nur einen Ausweg – sie müssen wirklich nach Ecuador.
