SEX, DRUGS, HEARTBREAK AND SCANDAL – THE INNER WORKINGS OF A TABLOID NEWSROOM



Fleet Street Fox’s anonymity allows her to delve deep into the dark corners of that most guilty of pleasures – the tabloid exposé. Acerbic, funny, and revelatory, her diaries show the heart within the hack as she tries to recover from a betrayal as devastating as any newspaper scandal.



Now an internet smash, with over forty thousand followers on twitter, two hugely popular blogs and a reputation throughout the media industry, Foxy’s diaries are juicy, shocking and as near to the knuckle as the lawyers would allow. The Diaries of a Fleet Street Fox tells the truth about her trade: the private scandals, victories and disasters that don’t end up on the front page. This is the hardest story she has ever told.

Reviews

When it comes to the inner workings of red-tops, Fleet Street Fox knows what she's talking about.
Charlie Brooker
A brilliant read. The first book I've read that starts at ninety miles an hour and then speeds up.
Jeremy Vine
It's sparky and snarky...read it for the down and dirty backround to life as a tabloid hack.
Sharon Wheeler, Senior Lecturer in Journalism, University of Portsmouth, TLS
A hack with a heart ... a story that has to be read.
