Pravda (S03E05)

Ben Elkins (Judd Hirsch), editor of the prestigious New York Sentinel, is concerned about his star reporter, Carl Hines (Anthony Mackie). His recent story is late and he talks to his mistress Katya (Michal Sinnott), threatening her that she must stay away from Carl. Meanwhile, Carl, an African-American in his late 20's, has been fabricating stories. He doesn't file any expense reports, yet has by-lines from all over the country. His father, Roy (Glynn Turman) teaches journalism at Jamaica High School and is very proud of his son. But when Katya is killed in Carl's apartment, Goren (Vincent D'Onofrio) and Bishop (Samantha Buck) see the dark underside of life at the Sentinel. (iTunes)
