Description

For more than 25 years, Gerry Brown has been an investigative journalist. He broke the Lord Archer and Monica Coghlan story, revealed the Frank Bough sex-and-drugs scandal and unveiled Pamella Bordes as something more than a Parliamentary researcher. This book takes the reader behind the headlines to reveal the truth about Fleet Street reporting. It details how surveillances are set up and carried out, the lengths to which a hack will go to get a story, and the truth about many famous-name cases, told in an accessible and humorous way. The book is an unapologetic defence of tabloid journalism.
