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

A hack with a heart ... a story that has to be read.
Dawn Porter
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 brilliant read. The first book I've read that starts at ninety miles an hour and then speeds up.
Jeremy Vine
When it comes to the inner workings of red-tops, Fleet Street Fox knows what she's talking about.
Charlie Brooker
