Heard about, now see it

Newspapers might not be what they used to be (journalism in general), but this movie reminds us of a time, when there was a code. Even if that also is just a small light (no pun intended) in the overall darkness. And there is a lot of darkness involved in this. The spotlight section of a newspaper seems to be a perfect place to do some real investigation and if you know what this is about, you know they will have their hands full to find something that they can use.
Not that there wasn't enough evidence for what had occurred or was still happening. It was more a case of, people not being able to make their cases. For different reasons, be it being intimidated or paid out or other things of that nature. The acting is superb and if you have the stomach for it, you can watch some interesting features on the disc of the movie.
