This is not the story of a Nazi & what his goals & beliefs are. This is the story of a boy who was a victim. Forget the synopsis, this review is about the writing & direction of the episode. Ed Asner gives his usual compelling performance mentoring green reporter Billy in developing the story. And after Billy discovers that Stiker was originally Jewish, they decide to run with the story. But there is another angle to this episode. Is it news to discover such a personal background story and print it without the subjects' approval or is it just a tabloid hit piece they might sell some papers? Peter Weller gives a gut wrenching performance worthy of an Emmy. The writing is snappy, crisp & contemporary.
