Overview
"The Publisher" is about the success story of a visionary man who begins after 1945 with a rickety car and a stack of novels. With his charismatic personality, he convinced the Allies to give him a newspaper license. A radio magazine soon follows, which quickly reaches millions of copies. His greatest publishing invention is a daily newspaper with which he wants to give the common man on the street a voice. But the publisher is not only successful in business, he also knows how to please women.
