The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp1955

Wyatt Earp:
[Opening Narration] Modern newspapermen dislike to see the good old days portrayed by editors and reporters who were drunkards, incompetents, and scoundrels. The men who work on today's newspapers have such strict standards that they cannot understand conditions which existed in towns like Dodge City on the frontier in 1878. But Marshal Wyatt Earp testified in his biography as to the truth. Frontier journalism was a bitter struggle between lawless men who used horsewhips, fists, and guns to keep the facts from being printed.
