This story hasn’t been on my radar, so I’m not convinced this is a complete summary:
Amy Jacobson, a top-notch veteran reporter for NBC in Chicago, planned to take her kids swimming. At the last minute, she received a phone call from reclusive Craig Stebic, whose wife disappeared. He invited her to a last-minute barbecue. She attended, and wore a bikini. She was filmed by CBS in the bikini. She then lost her job. She remains unemployed in journalism.
A number of things aren’t clear, so I hope someone in Chicago can clear this up:
- Why did she lose her job?
- Why was she followed by CBS?
Who is this Stebic guy? And if his wife disappeared, why is he having a bbq?

It could be seen as a conflict of interest that she is socializing with a person she was meant to be interviewing. I certainly would not see that as an unbiased report. Though, let’s face it, investigative journalism pretty much requires that you get close to the source. But I can see why a rival news station would be interested in discrediting her.
