Synopsis

Rebecca Tomkins (Barnes) and Amy Waddell (Clinger) are two young reporters who work for The American Report, a news magazine similar to 60 Minutes. Rebecca and Amy travel the country in an equipped van that provides them with a production studio to work on their stories. The show's producer, Francis X. Casey (Spielberg), is busy juggling assignments, often changing the girls' schedules in mid-assignment and sometimes flying out to help them out of a tough situation.
