Summary: A police official, under investigation because of allegations of brutality, is persuaded by a reporter that he can divert attention from these charges if he launches a crusade against homosexuals. The reporter tells him of an incident he has just witnessed in which a male passerby kissed a dying man who had been run over by a bus. A cynical, corrupt, homophobic press sets out to destroy the man.
