Produced by Fanchon Royer, one of Hollywood's few women executives at the time, Honor of the Press tells the story of gangster Roger Bradley (Wheeler Oakman) who buys a newspaper in order to mount a campaign against the local police commissioner (John Ince). Cub reporter Daniel Gridley (Edward J. Nugent) gets suspicious and along with his girlfriend, hat-check girl June Bonner (Dorothy Gulliver), begins an investigation into the dirty politics. Second-billed Rita LaRoy played the femme fatale and Honor of the Press was released by Poverty Row company Mayfair Pictures Corp.
