Synopsis
After losing an election, a politician takes over a local newspaper and uses its pages to campaign against the industrial interests he blames for his defeat. A crisis involving his younger sister tests the assumptions behind that campaign. The drama examines community, business and persuasion from a distinctly mid-century viewpoint.
