Mike Pomeroy (Harrison Ford) is a seasoned journalist who has considerable experience, and feels he is abov doing a morning show; so when they opportunity comes to him he balks, but agrees not because of interest but because of his contract. Becky (Rachel McAdams) has been hired as the Morning show producer, and wants to prove herself. Jerry Barnes (Jeff Goldblum) is her boss. Colleen Peck (Diane Keaton) is the female anchor who has been there for sometime. She and Pomeroy quickly develop a feud because most stories are beneath Pomeroy who she has to cover. The movie for the most part is about the developing relationship between Beck and Pomeroy. The show is scheduled to be cancelled, but because of many antics, and Pomeroy gong out and getting the scoop on a real story, the ratings come up and they get another year. Becky gets a job offer from a network, and at first she things her current relationships are worth preserving. But in the end she goes to interview. Pomeroy does a cooking class. This is his way of telling her that he would like her to stay, because cooking stories he always considered beneath him.
I enjoyed this movie. Harrison ford is actually very good in it. Rachel McAdams also is very good. The relationship they develop carries the movie.
