Tonight' Movie Is 'Special Bulletin'



From YouTube: In this movie - A TV reporter and cameraman are taken hostage on a tugboat while covering a workers strike. A terrorist group brings a homemade atomic bomb aboard a tugboat in the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina in order to blackmail the U.S. Government into disabling its nuclear weapons, and the incident is caught live on television. The movie simulates a series of live news broadcasts on the fictional RBS Network - in the tradition of the 1938 Orson Welles’ “War of the Worlds” radio broadcast. A fascinating gem of a TV-Movie and a worthy successor to “WOTW.”
