I am looking for the title a movie (most probably it was made for tv) from the early 80's with the following plot :
A group of terrorists install a timer-based nuclear bomb on the top of a skyscraper in Sydney Australia . They ask a large amount of money from the australian government to deactivate the bomb.
In the mean a reporter comes across evidence of the plot and teams up with few people to find out more ( another female journalist i think , and a nerdy computer guy).
The terrorists receive their money but their plane crashes (by multiple bird strike ) before they have a chance to deactivate the bomb.
The only way now the nuclear bomb can be found and deactivated is if the reporter and his friends can find out enough.

Ok, now i found it. It was not Getting Even.

..Deadline.. (1982) is what you are looking for and yes, it´s a tv-flick.

It was released in Finland on VHS back in the day.
