PROBLEM: Staffer Daniel Ellsberg (Matthew Rhys) registers this disconnect  and leaks a top-secret government report on the war to the New York Times. And whenever the Times gets a scoop   Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee (Tom Hanks)  gets riled.
 Bradlee 's ambitions were not modest  however.  He  just needed time. And now  suddenly  when the Post also got their own copy of the report   he  had it.
The film isn't Spielberg's subtlest  but it has some nicely subtle touches  like when  his  long-lens camera peers through White House windows to catch glimpses of a president and  his  henchmen; we hear their actual voices from tapes Nixon was forced to give up  years later.
Tom Hanks makes for a blustery  Ben Bradlee   and Meryl Streep plays Kay Graham as hesitant but steely  seemingly the only woman in the corridors of power â and ironically  the one with the power to defend the First Amendment.  Bradlee  can talk principle all  he  wants â and  he  does here  often â but only Graham can publish.
MONDELLO: Staffer Daniel Ellsberg registers how this doesn't jibe with what McNamara was saying on the plane or with a secret government report he has access to. When he leaks that report  The New York Times gets a huge scoop  and  Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee...
TOM HANKS: (As  Ben Bradlee ) Is anybody else tired of reading the news instead of reporting it?
HANKS: (As  Ben Bradlee ) We are sucking hind tit in our own backyard.
HANKS: (As  Ben Bradlee ) No  it's 7 000 pages detailing how the White House has been lying about the Vietnam war for 30 years. It's Truman and Eisenhower and Jack. LBJ lying - lying about Vietnam. And you think that's one story. Let's do our jobs. Find those pages.
MONDELLO:  Bradlee 's ambitions were not modest  however.  He  just needed time  and suddenly  he  had it.
HANKS: (As Ben Bradlee) I'd give my left one to be in this mess.
HANKS: (As  Ben Bradlee ) Whoa.
MONDELLO: Put to the torch - a phrase you don't hear much today in a film where the clatter of typewriters competes with the whoosh of pages sent by pneumatic tube to a press room where molten lead turns them into lines of type. And running the show - Tom Hanks as a blustery  Ben Bradlee  and Meryl Streep...
MONDELLO: ...As a hesitant but steely Katharine Graham  seemingly the only woman in the corridors of power and  ironically  the one with the power to defend the First Amendment.  Bradlee  can talk principle all  he  wants.
HANKS: (As  Ben Bradlee)  If we don't hold them accountable  I mean  my God  who will?

SOLUTION: Ben Bradlee

PROBLEM: NEW YORK (Reuters Breakingviews) - Time beat the clock. After rejecting at least two earlier entreaties  the publisher of Fortune  Sports Illustrated and other magazines agreed to be acquired by rival Meredith for $1.8 billion  which includes a hefty 46 percent premium. It’s a lucky break because a go-it-alone strategy looked doomed. Bountiful cost savings  however  will go to the buyer and its new billionaire backers.
Fortunately for Time shareholders  Meredith has been a persistent suitor. After failed merger efforts over the last few years  the $18.50-a-share all-cash offer provides nearly $600 million more than the target’s market value when deal talks surfaced on Nov. 16.
The presence of Charles and David Koch  whose private equity fund is kicking in preferred equity to help pay for the acquisition  may create concern for some readers because of the brothers’ history of supporting conservative causes. They aren’t getting a board seat  though. The investment  which resembles  one Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim made in the New York Times   also includes a solid financial rationale.
 Meredith  is touting between $400 million and $500 million of cost savings within two years of the companies uniting. Once taxed and capitalized  at the low end of that range they would be worth some $2.4 billion today – on a $2.8 billion deal  including debt. If nothing else  that should buy  Meredith  and the Kochs some time.

SOLUTION: Meredith

PROBLEM: Haiphong (Vietnam) (AFP) â During four years of compulsory rehab in Vietnam   Trung  spent  his  drug-free days gluing together false eyelashes as part of what authorities billed as valuable âwork therapyâ for  his  heroin addiction.
But critics say the work of  Trung  and tens of thousands of others is tantamount to forced labour that rarely helps users extinguish their addiction.
Police sent  Trung  to a state-sponsored rehab centre on the outskirts of Hanoi  one of 132 in Vietnam  where  he  says  he  faced routine beatings from guards and hours of labour for nominal pay.
 He  started using again soon after  his  release in 2014 â up to 80 percent of addicts from the centres relapse  according to official figures.
 Trung âs labour therapy has since been replaced by a daily shot of methadone from a government-run drop-in clinic  which  he  insists is the only effective treatment  he  âs  had.
Today  he  says  he  is keeping the addiction at bay  and is trying to mend ties with  his  only son.
Sometimes they house other marginal groups â the mentally ill and disabled  the homeless  the elderly â along with addicts like Trung  who support the treatment model on paper even if they resent the abuse inside.

SOLUTION:
Trung
