Synopsis
Alaska Daily (2022) is a crime drama from ABC — watch online on iFILM. Two-time Oscar winner Hilary Swank plays Eileen Fitzgerald, a high-profile New York investigative journalist whose career collapses after her reporting comes under scrutiny.
Rather than disappear quietly, Eileen takes her former mentor's offer and relocates to Anchorage to join a small metro daily. The story pulling her in: a pattern of missing and murdered Indigenous women the national press had long ignored. Cramped newsroom, unfamiliar city, sources who have no reason to trust her.
Tom McCarthy — the director behind Spotlight — created the series with the same procedural patience: slow, grinding, fact-first work. Jeff Perry co-stars. If most journalism dramas glamorise the byline, this one shows the legwork that comes before it. Stream Alaska Daily (2022) online on iFILM.
