- Quotes
City Editor Bostwick: Why anyone is simple minded enough to want to work on a newspaper I've never been able to find out.
Nancy Drew: Why Mr. Bostwick, journalism is a very noble and glorious career. With all the adventure and romance and everything I'd think you would just love it.

Featured review
Enjoyable film, suitable for kids
The Nancy Drew series of films was made by Warner Brothers as part of their B-picture unit and was intended for viewing primarily by children. Nancy Drew...Reporter is a fine example of the series. The film was highly enjoyable, the acting was excellent, very clever bits in the plot. The film holds up just as well today, and makes a fine movie for children to sit down and watch. The film is in the public domain and can be found on DVD, Video, and TV.
