Storm Warning (1950)

John Alban: Reporter

Quotes 

• Reporter : Many times today on the streets, in the restaurant, in the hotel, people have come up to us and asked us not to judge their whole town by the brutal, criminal action of hoodlums last night.

• Reporter : These decent individuals, sincerely upset by the ugly flare-up of violence which has brought sudden national prominence to their small town, tell us the great majority of people here, 75, 85% of them, want no part of the Ku Klux Klan or mob rule.

• Reporter : Many of these people here are seriously concerned about the good name of their town, about its future. As you look at them, you can see the deep shame that they feel. Many of these people also feel, however, these respected folk, a serious resentment. A resentment against the press. Against outsiders. Against the national coverage that this inquest is receiving.
