    Apple is still lining up shows for its upcoming streaming video service, and its latest might not be quite what you expect. Deadline and Variety have learned that the tech giant has ordered a drama "inspired" by the real story of Hilde Lysiak (shown at left), the preteen reporter who broke news of a murder in her self-run newspaper despite harsh internet criticism. The fictional version focus on a girl who moves to a small town and uncovers a cold case that seemingly everyone else wants to stay unsolved.
