"A Special Edition" is an episode of "The Outer Limits" television show. It was first broadcast on 25 July, 1997, during the third season.

Introduction

Donald Rivers, a journalist for the television show "The Whole Truth", has found proof that the government and large defense contractors have been illegally and secretly cloning human beings. After locking himself in the studio with only a small crew he plans to air his report to the world.

Opening Narration

"Sometimes, to uncover that which is hidden, we must first be made to look."

Closing Narration

"We rely upon others to inform us but wisdom can never be taught... and we must always decide the truth for ourselves."

Trivia

* This episode is a clip show, and Donald Rivers' reports are made up from clips from other episodes of "The Outer Limits". However, this episode is unusual because one clip came from an episode that had yet to be broadcast; the report that Rivers runs on Mason Stark did not air for another four episodes.
