Is that one scene or two?

I think for simplicity they should be viewed as separate scenes. The tension of the restaurant scene and the exhilaration of the car chase scene, great stuff ;D

I would go with the scene which is reminiscent of the Albert Brooks line "I say it here, it comes out there." from Broadcast News. Like most things in Nightcrawler, it is amped up. Russo shouting for the newscasters to hit the emotional lines again and again. Terrific and terrifying.
