Fast-paced newspaper comedy stars Lee Tracy as a Walter Winchell-esque gossip columnist whose skills at digging up dirt on show business shotgun weddings bring him to the top of his profession. When the people he's burned in print start looking for payback, however, he finds there's nowhere to go but down. (official distributor synopsis)
