Hank McPhee is the on-air partner of Bobby Mann. He killed Bobby because he felt humiliated and wounded by the betrayal from his best friend, as the network were putting Bobby under pressure to fire Hank and bring in someone with a fresher perspective. The blackmail photo had been intended to remind Bobby how loyal Hank had always been, only to be dumped now.
Hank had known everything, and had told Bobby that the two should let the network fire them, pay him the $80 million, go out as a team, just as they'd gone in. When Bobby refused, Hank pretended to give in, and offered him the cranberry juice as a toast to old times, using it to mask the balsamic vinegar which he knew would be fatal to his former friend.
