Description: The film is notable for the pejorative use of the word "nigger", though this is clearly dubbed, not what was originally filmed. Mike Reese (Duryea) loses his job at a big city paper he finds no one else will hire him. Reese borrows money from a gangster and buys half the interest in a small-town newspaper.
