Description
When the small town of Marion, KS, is thrust into the international spotlight after a police raid on the Marion County Record and the death of its 98-year-old co-owner, a fierce debate ignites about the abuse of power, journalistic ethics, local journalism, and the United States Constitution. This taut documentary reveals the power and pressures of ethics and freedom of speech and the press that pervade our times, even in rural Kansas.
