CRAIG
Big news! My saviour has arrived!
My intuition's never been so strong!
Big News! My career has been revived
All I needed was a snippy, pissy Yankee all along!
Take this superstitious city, add one little Jew from Brooklyn
Plus a college education and a mousy little wife,
And big news! Real big news!
That poor sucker saved my life!

So give him fangs, give him horns,
Give him scaly, hairy palms!
Have him droolin' out the corner of his mouth!
He's a master of disguise!
Check those bug-out creepy eyes!
Sure, that fella's here to rape the whole damned South!
They'll be bangin' down my door,
Yellin' "More, Craig, more!"
"Call for justice! We need justice!
Beat the bastard! Kill the bum!"
Big news! Real big news!
My saviour has finally come!

According to reports obtained exclusively by this reporter,
Prosecutor Dorsey has the villain in his sights.
A highly ranking unnamed source in this investigation tells me
Leo Frank's the only likely culprit in this case.
Anyone with any information on the suspect, Leo Frank,
Should contact this reporter care of the Atlanta Georgian.

CRAIG
Look! You just scribble it down and it covers the town like molasses or mud!
Look! For us drunken ol' bums, opportunity comes in a magical flood!
Look! You might never be sure if your motives are pure, but your profits are clear!
Look! You were down and depressed, now you're ridin' the crest of the scoop of the year!

DORSEY
Jim Conley. I got a piece of paper here says you spent a little time on the chain gang.

CONLEY
That right?

DORSEY
Twice, according to this.
And the second time it says here you were out with the road gang
and you just up and disappeared.

CONLEY
Well, you know, my time was about up.

DORSEY
Really? I think you had a few more months to serve.
You know what that makes you, don't you?

CONLEY
Lucky?

DORSEY
I was going to say an escaped convict. Now, what should we do about that?

CONLEY
What was that you was askin' me about Mr Frank?
