Summary:
New York Globe columnist Jimmy Russell prowls his Broadway beat, digging up the racy gossip his readers devour with their morning toast and cup of Joe. It's a glamorous life-until Jimmy's attempt to help his actress girlfriend out of a jam ends with him shoving a dead mobster over the balcony of a Manhattan penthouse. Director William A Wellman combines the two genres of crime and tabloid journalism in this snappy Pre-Code comedy-melodrama.
