Product description
Review
The nation's fruity new sweetheart Rebekah Brooks, 43, former chief executive of News International is traduced disgracefully in a new memoir, 'Hack', by snivelling former employee Graham Johnson, 44. He writes: 'Tall and slim, an English Rose with a killer streak, deadly as nightshade. But in the flesh she was strangely sexless, her femininity scraped barren by a corporate zealotry incongruous with her alabaster skin and floral prints'
- Ephraim Hardcastle --Daily Mail
For a large chunk of his life, Graham worked as a self-confessed 'tabloid terrorist'. He worked for Rebekah Brooks during her infamous stint as the editor of the News of the World. During this time, he did a lot of very nasty things, which he has decided to write down and release in his new book --VICE Magazine
Even if you re not a tabloid reader, this peek inside The News Of The World is a timely expose of a murky business. Johnson reveals how stories were fabricated, lives were ruined and privacy invaded. But what happens when News International turns on one of its own? A compelling read --Shortlist
Going into far more detail about the tabloid journalist s craft than any of the Leveson-inspired newspaper articles, this is an enlightening warts-and-all expose of the methods Johnson used while working for The News of The World and the mind-set that went with it.... A hard book to put down --The Glasgow Herald

How does a tabloid journalist write when he produces a book? Answer: odds-on he writes like a tabloid journalist - and, in Mr Johnson's case, not a very good one, at that.Read more
