And just would like to have this for the record.
And millions of dollars of their own dough in legal costs.
And not a lot of companies in the health care field hire ex tobacco scientists.
And now, even now, when every word...
And on me, personally.

As the lowest form of character assassination.
As we fuckin' speak!
At least within Brown &Williamson's representation...
At my time of life pause?
At the DuPont ManuaI High School.
Back off? Or get over it?
Because as a C.E.O, sure, he's gotta be a great businessman, right?
Because he has to, uh, reveal it in a court of law.
Because he is telling the truth. That's why we're not gonna air it.
Because he's not telling the truth? No.
Because I think Hezbollah...
Because I watched those testimonies very carefully.

Because look, here's how it lays out.
Because of this guy's confidentiality agreement,
Because of your segment,
Because that happens to be what Mike and I...
Because there's a legal concept...
Because they were worried about the possibility...
Because we are the standard for everybody else.
Because when I tell someone I'm gonna do something, I deliver.
Because you keep from me what they can discover.

But he's also a man of science.
But history only remembers most what you did last.
But I don't take that seriously. Where do you work?

But if it did and we aired this segment,
But in all that time, Mike,
But now things have changed.
But one we have to check on, Mike.
But the judge threw it out.
But upon reflection, we've decided to expand our zone of comfort with you,
But we cannot broadcast what critical information about tobacco,
But what you're going through goes on day in, day out,
But without knowing what he's gonna do...
But yes, I did. I came all the way down here to tell you...

He doesn't care to know.
He had a major influence on the New Left in the late '60s.
He has more concentration than anybody I've ever met.
He referred to this... The Sewen Dwarfs...

Hey, baby. What's wrong?
Hey, it doesn't work, you've burned your bridges, man.
Hezbollah does not have a face.
Hi, honey.
Hi.
Hi. This is Doug Oliver.
Hi. What time is it?
His veracity was good enough for the state of Mississippi.
Hmm. I have to take a shower.
Hold it! Hold it! Slow. Slow.
Hold on a minute.
Hopefully, we won't have to use the alternate, but we should have it in the can.
How about you?
How do you do? I'm Lowell Bergman. We spoke on the phone.
How does he know he doesn't want to talk to me? He doesn't know what I'm calling him about.
How does... How does one go to jail?
How have you liked your stay?
How How's the new place?
How important it was in the court of public opinion.
How many shows have we done? Huh?
How prominent? What kind of placement?
How the hell do I know about Brown &Williamson?
How will I be regarded in the end...
How will that affect their lives?
How're you doing, Mr. Wigand? I'm John Telafarro.
How's the family? Okay?
However, for you, there is a more perilous effect of the gag order.
I I can't say that.
I I don't wanna be paranoid. I mean...
I I think I need to call the police. He won't respond.
I always thought of myself as a man of science, that's what's wrong with it.
I am instructing you...
I am so sorry.
I am sorry, but I'm due upstairs.
I appreciate all that, Jeff,
I believe I could be a good teacher.
I believe Mr. Sandefur perjured himself...

I can't conduct an interview from back there.
I can't get out of here till mid morning. I'll be in tomorrow night.
I can't seem to find the criteria to decide.
I can't talk to you about anything else.
I can't. I've gotta fly to Boston tomorrow.
I cancelled payment. It was junk!
I checked into room 930.
I constructed a memo to Mr. Sandefur indicating I could not in conscience...
I could be anything, right? Anything worth putting on between commercials.
I could very easily explain this to you in layman's terms...
I did Irangate, the Ayatollah, Malcolm X,
I did not give you up to anyone.
I did three minutes on the Ewening News. You'll want to see it.
I did?
I didn't know that was a secret.
I didn't tell you that so you could pick it up and take it away.
I discovered this.
I do know how it is.
I do not think that you know for me what it is to walk in my shoes.
I do. I deliver him. He sits. He talks.
I don't know how to say this,
I don't know if you're ever gonna get paid.
I don't know what the fuck I really think.
I don't know what to do.
I don't know.
I don't know. Do you think the Knicks are gonna make it to the semifinals?
I don't know. How does that get Wigand on the air?
I don't like being back here.
I don't think he's got any attorneys.
I don't think I can do this anymore.
I don't think I can do this.
I don't think so. Take a look at this.
I don't want to give them a chance to get another restraining order. Okay?

I find chemistry to be magical.
I find it an adventure.
I fought for you, and I still fight for you!
I got fired this morning.
I got the goddamned Unabomber threatening to blow up L.A.X.

I gotta arrange for a legal defense first.

I hear potential Brown &Williamson lawsuit...
I hear Shut the segment down. Cut Wigand loose.
I hear you guys are sitting on something sensational over there.
I heard about the Kentucky gag order.
I hope you improve your batting average.
I knew that if I ever broke my promise,
I know what I have to know.
I know. I'm gonna go there tonight.
I mean, compelled by a, uh, Justice Department.
I mean, what the hell is wrong with that?
I never left a source hung out to dry ewer.
I promised you a three hour heads up. Here it is.
I really do, Jeffrey, but...
I really don't have that much time.
I receive a shit load of scientific papers from inside Phillip Morris.
I said I'd call the kids before they went to bed.
I see a rhetorical question on the horizon.
I see the girls a couple of days a week.
I sent the document forward to Sandefur.
I showed them thieves in suits. I spent a lifetime building...
I signed a confidentiality agreement. I honor agreements.
I sit anywhere I damn please.
I still do the tough stories.
I think each of you believe nicotine is not addictive...
I think it was a disgrace.
I think we could be at grave risk.
I think what we're trying to tell you is that it happens all the time.
I think you better take it.
I thought we...
I told the truth.
I told the truth.
I told them you had an e mail death threat that told you...
I took off on Tisch. I took off on Corporate.
I took the money. My wife was happy.
I want to stand by my husband.
I want you to get Legal on a corporate confidentiality agreement.
I wanted to hook up with you, talk to you about what we were talking about in your car.
I was a corporate vice president.
I was a director of corporate development at Pfizer.
I was ahead of you, and then you just...
I was cited for shoplifting once, but it was a mistake.
I was just explaining to Jeff they got a Kentucky court...
I was not on the team. I sparred with the Olympic team.
I was paid well for my work,
I was the general manager and director of new products. I speak Japanese.
I was thinking of calling you tomorrow anyway.
I was told that we would continue to work on a substitute.
I was young! I was young!
I will sign it.
I will tell you, Mr. Sandefur... And Brown &Williamson too...
I work for CBS News.
I worked as a, uh,
I would bet on it.
I, uh...
I'd be lying to you if I did not tell you...
I'd be lying to you if I didn't tell you...
I'd rather play than talk about it.
I'd suffer the consequence.
I'll give it a look.
I'll push it for a week. I want Milo and Suein to go through it.
I'll see y'all later. Dr. Wigand, good luck.
I'll see you then. I love you. Bye.
I'll shoot the fucking thing myself!
I'll take a look at what you got but I'm not moving any deadlines because you say so.
I'm about out of moves, Dick.
I'm alone on this.
I'm an investigator, and I was wondering if I could ask you a couple of questions about that.
I'm concerned for a friend of mine who's staying at your hotel right now.
I'm doing this story on fire safety, and people burning up from falling asleep smoking.
I'm going to have to go downstairs.
I'm going to resign in protest to force it on the air?
I'm going to the store. Please explain our new house guests to your children.
I'm gonna be in the lobby of the Seelbach Hotel in Louisville...
I'm gonna leave with my word intact. Fuck the rules of the game!
I'm gonna tell you why.
I'm just a commodity to you, aren't I?
I'm Lowell Bergman. I'm from 60 Minutes. You know, you take the 60 Minutes...
I'm not free to testify... Here.
I'm not gonna do that.
I'm not lying for you. I'm not gonna shut up for you.
I'm not pushing you around. I'm asking you questions.
I'm not sure he got the message.
I'm not talking about celebrity, vanity, CBS. I'm...
I'm on a leave of absence. Forced vacation.
I'm on the 8:10. I should be home... 9:30.
I'm running out of heroes, man.
I'm sorry.
I'm staying right here, doing my job. Fighting to get my show on the air.
I'm talking to you! What the hell do you think I am, a 78 year old assassin?
I'm telling you... your agents in that office are acting improperly.
I'm told unusual promises were made to Wigand.
I'm trying to Band Aid a situation here, and you're too dim...
I'm trying to start a new career.
I'm with Don on this.
I'm working with someone now who's the former head of research at Brown &Williamson.
I'm... I'm talking about...
I've been out in the world givin' my word...
I've decided we should cut an alternate version of the show without his interview.
I've got Richard Scruggs on the phone.
I've heard virtually all the... We touched on it...
I've retained outside counsel to do exactly that...
If he lied, he didn't disclose their information, and the damages are smaller.
If I'm not teaching, there's no medical.
If my wife has to work, who's gonna look after the kids?
If this holds up... And it very well may not, Mike.
If two people have an agreement, like a confidentiality agreement,
If we arrive at the conclusion that you're acting in bad faith,
If we can't have a whole show, then I want half a show rather than no show.
If we were to broadcast an interview with him,
If you are, then I'll take Barbara to soccer and take you to dance after.
If you ask me...
If you could engineer it into the court record, you might have something.
If you didn't shut the F up, they were gonna kill you.
If you like, I can assign another producer to edit your show.
If you want to do it.
If you would just turn your chair a little bit...
If you'd asked me...
If you'd be interested in talkin' to us,
If you're curious to meet me,
If you've been putting off decorating that special room,
If you've examined the document, you'll see it's in your own best interest...
If you've got vital insider stuff,
Impact, satisfaction.
In accordance to the terms of the contractual obligations...
In combat, events have a duration of seconds.
In detail what happened.
In lieu of being fired.
In my...
In other words, you are charging Sandefur...
In the future, I'm gonna do this, become that?
In the grass.
In the navy, I flew A 6's off carriers.
In The New York Times, in print, on television...
In the number three tobacco company in America.
In the real world, when you get to where I am, there are other considerations.
In the state of Mississippi, the cat...
In these words: Get on the fucking phone.
In this report before the WalI Street Journal runs.
Infamy lasts a little longer.
Interfering? That's what we do.
Into its key claim indicates that many of the serious allegations...
Into where I am now... staring at the Brown &Williamson building!
Is an addictive drug despite their public statements to the contrary.
Is CBS Corporate telling CBS News...
Is gonna go down in the court of public opinion, my friend.
Is it too late?
Is that a threat?
Is that why you became a journalist? Then you get to ask all the questions?
Is there any truth to any of it? I doubt it.
Is there anything you want to know about me, Mr. Wigand?
Is there information that people should have...
Is trying to broaden into a political party right now,
Issues like that. He can talk, we can air it.
It all worked out.
It allows for the nicotine to be more rapidly absorbed in the lung...
It allows for the nicotine to be more rapidly absorbed in the lung...
It could work. If it's public record, it's public record.
It happened just after I talked to you. I do not like coincidences.
It has a pharmacological effect that crosses the blood brain barrier intact.
It hasn't been Mrs. Wigand for some time.
It never crossed my mind not to honor my agreement.
It quotes Richard Scruggs calling it the worst kind...
It stays that way.
It was just a racoon, baby. Nothin'.
It was on C SPAN. Yeah.
It would be better if he called us.
It would free him up from his confidentiality agreement and give him some protection.
It's a smear campaign, Charlie.
It's all dark except the tenth floor. That's the legal department.
It's an alternate version.
It's early, isn't it?
It's gonna kill the rest of my day.
It's gotta be Phillip Morris, huh?
It's Jeffrey Wigand.
It's just... It's a smaller scale.
It's just... It's not...
It's not a rumor. It's a sale. If Tisch can unload CBS...
It's okay.
It's old news. Stick with me, like always. We'll be okay.
It's on record. It's out. It's no secret anymore.
It's probably not important at all.
It's spooky how he can concentrate.
It's Terry Lenzner's outfit, I. G.I. Jack, listen to me.
It's the we don't know litany.
It's too big a decision to make without being resolved in my own mind.
It's where our babies were born.
Jeff, except to just say it right out.
Jeff!
Jeff.
Jeffrey just charges right ahead.
Jeffrey S. Wigand. R E Y. W I G A N D.
Jeffrey Wigand? Yeah, I cited him.
Jeffrey, where you going with this?
Jeffrey, you forgot the lunches!
Jeffrey!
Jeffrey! Jeffrey!
Jeffrey?
Jeffrey. How are you?
Jeffs a premier golfer. What are you, a two handicap?
Jeopardizing the sale of CBS to Westinghouse.
Johnson &ohnson.
Just ran into two of your geologists.
Just so I know you know, when I talk to people in confidence,
Key portions of the controversial interview.
Lawyer me some more? I've been in this profession 50 fucking years!
Leave it on. Just leave it on! Okay?
Less than great.
Let me give it some thought.
Let me see the documents.
Let me, tell you something, Lowell. Look, look.
Let's get back to Brown &Williamson. If you decide to go on 60 Minutes,
Let's go to court.
Letters to my brother, my will.
Light it up and you're going to get your fix.
Like the testimony before Congress of Dr. Wigand's former boss,
Like what? Corporate responsibility?
Like what? Your sign?
Like, for instance, their ex supervisor who's already at Brown &Williamson...
Listen, could you call a number for me? It's in Mississippi.
Listen, G.M. And Ford, they get nailed...
Look, um...
Looks forward to a great long peace with Israel.
Lost his heart? Walked out on us?
Love your home with beautiful Broyhill furniture...
Lowell Bergman said I should give you a call.
Lowell Bergman... the hotshot who never met a source he couldn't turn around.
Lowell, do not... Screw this up.
Lowell? Look, I've decided to preface Sunday's show.
Lowell.
Lowell.
Make it even a little more attractive.
Manipulates and adjusts the nicotine fix...
Maria.
Market and sell enormous volume, go to a lot of golf tournaments.
Martin Luther King, Saddam, Sadat, etc, etc.
Maybe for the audience it's just voyeurism, something to do on a Sunday night.
Maybe that's just what you've been telling yourself all these years...
Maybe the biggest, most expensive...
Maybe things have changed.
Maybe Wigand's right. Maybe I'm hooked.
Might have had some positive effect, I don't know.
Mike, they backed locals in Oka in a fight with Mohawks...
Mike, you tell him.
Mike? Mike!
Mike.
Mike. Mike. Mike.
Mike's our attorney general down here.
Mind if I sit down?
Mmm, he's into kind of little cars that, um...
Mobile Approach, this is Leo November 643. Over.
Modern marriage.
Mommy!
Month after month after month.
More time with the kids.
More time. More time together.
Most ingenious man I ever knew.
Most people consider what they're saying... social skills.
Mr. Bergman, what did you want me to consult about?
Mr. Bergman.
Mr. Eric Kluster, president of CBS News,
Mr. Kluster said, quote, The atmosphere is tougher than ever.
Mr. McDougal, my name is Lowell Bergman. I'm a producer for 60 Minutes.
Mr. Motley, we have rights here.
Mr. Rather's been complaining about his chair again.
Mr. Wallace, I am a servant of God.
Mr. Wigand, Mr. Bergman is on the telephone.
Mr. Wigand?
Mr. Wigand? You can go up now.
Mrs. Wigand?
Mrs. Wigand's leaving the house.
Ms. Helen Caperelli, general counsel of CBS News, 3.9 million.
My co counsel, Ron Motley and I,
My father left us when I was five years old.
My father was a... A mechanical engineer.
My girls are crying. So fuck them.
My kids had good medical, good schools. Got a great house.
My name is Lowell Bergman. Just tell him that.
No, I don't have a clue.
No, I mean since whenever.
No, I usually sit around my hotel room dressed like this at 5:30 in the morning,
No, I'm not gonna take no for an answer. No.
No, I'm questioning your hearing.
No, no, don't call the police. Just tell him I'm on the phone with you.
No, no, it's okay. I...
No, no, no that. I'm talking about the Associated Press.
No, no, of course they're not influenced by money. They work for free.
No, only that we would hold his story until it was safe for him.
No, thank you.
No, that's fame. Fame has a 15 minute half life.
No, they volunteered. A friend owns a large security company.
No, what?
No, you can. Tell him to get on the fucking phone!
No, you do not.
No! I should have.
No.
No.
No. Look, I mean, there was a footprint. Forget it.
No. Um, I'm assuming the cave in begins...
No. We don't do that.
Nobody will be able to say, Well, hell's bells, Margaret,
Norman!
Not by artificially adding nicotine,
Not even with hundreds of thousands dying each year from an illness...
Not like the Seven Dwarfs.
Not one fucking time. You wanna know why?
Not to answer that question.
Not to disclose any information...
Nothing... I mean nothing... Will ever be the same again.
Nothing's wrong with that. That's it. You're making money.
Now this is what we're going to do. We're going over to Black Rock...
Now who are they trying to protect?
Now you question my integrity?
Now you tell me. What does this guy have to say that threatens these people?
Now, don't be paranoid, Jeff.
Now, my number is area code 510 555 0199.
Now, now what are you going to do now? You going to finesse me?
Now, what this one is is a temporary restraining order,
Now's the time to act during the lowe your home sale at Smith's.
Obey orders and fuck off. That's what I hear.
Of a multi billion dollar lawsuit against us...
Of an organized smear campaign against a whistle blower.
Of betraying the legacy of Edward R. Murrow.
Of course not. Why?
Of the temporary restraining order...
Of what went on inside our shop.
Of what Wigand has said on our show is printed,
Of your severance agreement with Brown &Williamson.
Off every shelf of every store right across America, instantly.
Officer Muravchick, how are you?
Officer Muravchick?
Oh, along the way, I suppose I made some minor impact.
Oh, come on, Lowell. This is The New York Times. I don't know.
Oh, hi, Doug. It's Lowell.
Oh, how fortunate I am to have Lowell Bergman's moral tutelage...
Oh, I didn't know you were home.
Oh, man.
Oh, someone took a poll? Are all things Canadian boring?
Oh, yeah?
Oh, you know what we do or do not need to know?
Oh, you've got rights.
Oh. You know,
