This is more of a 3.5 than a solid 4 for me.

As someone who used to work in journalism I really appreciated the story, what I struggled with, was the characters. I had a hard time relating to the main characters and related more to characters that were only very barely featured. Which is a problem for me. Good or bad, I want to be able to root for the main characters in some way. I just felt that the characters fell a little flat for me.

The showcasing of journalism was brilliant though. And again, the story itself was compelling, I just wish I could have liked the main characters.
