Is The Series Alaska Daily Based On A True Story?
No, the plot of “Alaska Daily” is not based on anything that happened in real life. Instead, it is based on a script written by Tom McCarthy and Kyle Hopkins, a writer for the daily newspaper in Anchorage, Alaska, called the Anchorage Daily News (ADN).

Even though it is a work of fiction, the show is based on real events, especially Hopkins’ “Lawless” series of investigative stories, which were released by ADN and ProPublica between 2018 and 2020 as part of a project.
The series told about the terrible things that happened to people in Alaska who had been s*xually assaulted but got no help from the police. Kyle’s investigations were quite enlightening because they brought to light the problems with the justice system.
Tom McCarthy heard about the news and was excited to tell the story of a local reporter. During a sneak peek event with The Paley Center for Media in September 2022, he talked about his idea for a regional newsgroup to hire a New York journalist. This show is a must-see for anyone who likes shows like Sharp Objects and True Detective that are about news or crime.
