Regie: Richard Brooks
Der Chefredakteur Ed Hutcheson kämpft an drei Fronten: Er muss sich gegen die Machenschaften eines einflussreichen Gangsterchef wehren, er will seinen Zeitungsbetrieb aufrecht erhalten und im gleichen Zug seine Ehe retten. Der Film zeigt die Notwendigkeit einer unabhängigen Presse.
