:07:00
What the fuck's going on?
:07:02
- They wanna know what's going on.
- I can't hear you.
:07:04
- Turn the studio mike on.
- We're on in 11 seconds.
:07:07
- Ten seconds.
- What are you doing? Have you flipped?
:07:10
- We better get him off.
- Get him off.
:07:13
- Get your fucking hands off me!
- Turn the sound off!
:07:16
He's going on live!
:07:18
- Key two.
- We're in trouble down here.
:07:23
Go to standby!
:07:28
Lou, can't we clear out the lobby?
There must be 100 people there.
:07:31
- How am I gonna clear 'em out?
- Every TV station and wire service!
:07:33
I could barely get in.
:07:36
- Arthur, anything?
- Not so far.
:07:39
Frank Hackett just walked in.
We had to abort the show.
:07:42
So far over 900
fucking phone calls...
:07:45
complaining about the foul language.
:07:47
- What page are you putting it on?
- Hackett just walked in.
:07:50
- ABC again.
- Tell 'em to go fuck themselves.
:07:53
That goes for you, too, Marty.
:07:55
You're off the air.
:07:56
- He wants to talk to you.
- Who's replacing Beale?
:08:00
- We're flying Snowden up.
- Everybody hold it.
:08:02
Let's see how the other networks
handle this.
:08:05
- The ten o'clock news opened with it.
- Good evening. Howard Beale...
:08:08
They'll all make it
their lead story.
:08:10
Howard Beale interrupted
his "Network News" program tonight...
:08:14
to announce he was going
to kill himself.
:08:16
An unusual thing happened
at a sister network...
:08:18
UBS, this evening.
:08:20
- How are we handling it?
- Halloway will make a statement...
:08:24
at the end of the show that Howard's
been under great personal stress.
:08:30
We've got a stockholders' meeting
tomorrow...
:08:32
at which we will announce
the restructuring of management plan.
:08:35
I don't want this grotesque incident
to interfere with that.
:08:38
I'll suggest Mr. Ruddy open with a short
statement washing this whole thing off.
:08:42
You, Max, better have answers for those
nuts that always come to the meetings.
:08:47
Mr. Beale has been under great
professional and personal strain.
:08:49
I've got surprises for you, too!
:08:51
I've had it up to here
with your division...
:08:54
and it's annual
$33 million deficit!
:08:56
Keep your hands off
my News Division, Frank.
:08:59
We're responsible to corporate level,
not you.
