News items about a former governor and a former candidate for governor made a big splash online overnight Thursday.

Former Democratic nominee for governor, Wendy Davis, confirmed to The Dallas Morning News' Bobby Blanchard that she's working on a pilot for NBC loosely based on her life.

“It is loosely based on my personal experience,” Davis told Blanchard. “It is not an autobiographical tale.” She added that no decision has been made on who would play the character based on her.
