Trama
Gli eredi del vecchio proprietario da poco scomparso hanno deciso di cessare le pubblicazioni del quotidiano "The Day". A questa decisione si oppone strenuamente il direttore Ed Hutcheson, che sta portando avanti un'inchiesta sull'omicidio di una ragazza che sembra nascondere un caso di clamorosa corruzione. Per evitare la chiusura, Ed decide di portare il caso in tribunale: guadagna così tempo prezioso per scoprire la verità e scriverla sul giornale. E' uno dei più appassionati film dedicati al giornalismo americano, diretto da un regista a suo agio con tematiche civili e ritmi sostenuti.
