Eddie "Gonzo" Gilman (Ezra Miller) wants to write the truth in the school newspaper. But when he is thrown off the staff by his editor—and arch-nemesis—Gavin Riley (Jesse McCartney), Gonzo vows revenge. He starts an underground paper, "The Gonzo Files," to give a voice to the misfits victimized by Gavin Riley and his cronies. Gonzo assembles a crack staff, including the deceptively shy Ming Na, perpetually bullied Schneeman, Horny Rob (who hits on the less attractive girls for action), and the mysterious Evie. "The Gonzo Files" becomes a runaway hit and turns the whole school upside down, but the more successful Gonzo becomes, the more he learns that with truth comes consequences.
