Caden is the son of Max and Kathryn Finch. As Max's would-be heir, he's the editor of broadsheet newspaper The National Reporter, the cornerstone of Max's media empire, but he's struggling to cope with the pressures of the job as the general election approaches, and all eyes are on his paper's political coverage – particularly after Caden loses Maggie, a nationally-renowned political correspondent.
He has a fraught and complex relationship with Max, whom he watches take possession of any room he walks into, including Caden's newsroom. Caden lives alone, and is struggling to to conceal a serious cocaine habit.
