Abstract:

A soon to be laid off female newspaper reporter writes a final column, using a phony letter about a disgruntled man who plans to jump off of City Hall on Christmas Eve, as a protest of the mistreatment of the common people in society. When the article is a hit, the reporter must come up with someone to impersonate the writer of the letter she fabricated, so she recruits a down on his luck former ballplayer to take on the identity of the letter writer. When the newspaper publisher, with aspirations towards a Presidential bid, plots to use the man for his political gain, the reporter and the ballplayer are forced to make a decision about keeping up the ruse.
