Ken Dellao

Ken Dellao was a reporter for CNB during Day 7.

Before Day 7

Ken Dellao had invited Olivia Taylor, daughter of President Allison Taylor, to have dinner several times, but she had refused.

Day 7

After Benjamin Juma's attack on the White House ended, President Allison Taylor's offered a speech at the White House. While she was addressing the reporters, Dellao approached Ethan Kanin and told him that he was reporting on the alleged murder of federal witness Ryan Burnett and that Ethan had released Jack Bauer and authorized him to interrogate Burnett. Ethan took him aside and tried to find out where he had gotten the information, but Ken didn't confirm anything to him.

Ethan then blamed Olivia Taylor for the leak, but she denied it and told her mother that Charlie Isaacson, a producer at CNB told him their source was someone within the United States Marshals Service.

Around 10:34 pm, Olivia called Dellao telling him that Kanin resigned as chief adviser and that he should go live with the statement about Kanin's involvement in Burnett's murder. He also informed him that Senator Blaine Mayer was killed allegedly by Jack Bauer as well. Dellao thanked her for providing all this inside information to him and promised to isolate the fallout on Kanin alone and away from her mother.

Later, Ken called Olivia, demanding to know why the joint chiefs were meeting. He also heard of activity around the Port of Alexandira. Olivia told him she wasn't going to give him details. However, Ken threatened to inform the president that Olivia had been responsibile for Kanin's resignation, if Olivia wouldn't tell him the details of the joint chiefs meeting. Olivia reluctantly agreed, and asked Ken where he was so they could meet.

When Olivia arrived at Ken's hotel room, she reluctantly informed Ken of Starkwood and the bio-threat. She asked him to not go public with the story because it would cause mass panic, he said he wouldn't if she persauded him, eluding to sex. After they had sex, Ken apoligized to Olivia and said that he would still go public with the story. Olivia then showed him that she had taped their sexual encounter, and that she would use the tape to create a media frenzy and inform Ken's wife if he went public with the story.
