Kymmenen Oscar-ehdokkuutta kerännyt Kasvot kuvaruudussa on satiiri tv-aseman uutisankkurista, joka nousee kansansuosikiksi ja profeetaksi omaperäisillä, tyytymättömillä puheillaan.

Uutisankkuri Howard Beale siirretään 25 työvuoden jälkeen pois tehtävästään. Beale ryhtyy kuitenkin vihaiseen vastahyökkäykseen, mikä puhuttelee televisiouutisten latteisiin lauseisiin tylsistyneitä katsojia.
