Add to basketKingpin and Eli explores the choices real people make when facing moral dilemmas. Workers must make tough decisions when priorities are in conflict as they strive to achieve their personal goals and company objectives, while at the same time, trying to help their coworkers succeed. Thomas Whitherspoon is the senior anchor of Briggs News. His coworkers at the TV station call him Kingpin and it's a title he relishes since there are no limits to his arrogance. He carefully protects his image using everything and every person at his disposal. Whitherspoon believes nice guys finish last and learned early in his career that if he doesn't promote himself no one else will. He shares anchor duties with young family man and new father Carl Pickler. When Whitherspoon becomes convinced that Pickler's out for his job, he develops an elaborate plan to get him fired. But the conspiracy to remove the perceived threat to his dominance at the station has unexpected consequences. Whitherspoon sees himself as a survivor and is willing to do whatever it takes to keep his position as the top dog at the TV station. Does that include murder? Whitherspoon becomes the focus of a homicide investigation when forensic evidence points to an employee at the TV station as the murderer. Whitherspoon is on Detective Strollo's short list of suspects, because he was at the station the night that a murder rocked the quiet city of Briggs Lake, Arizona. Whitherspoon views life as a chess game and considers himself a chess master while those around him are merely playing checkers. When things at the station get complicated and the police begin closing in, he contemplates his final move which has to be a checkmate.
