Title: The Good, the Bad, and the Unacceptable: The Hard News About the British Press
Abstract: Have journalists changed since Ben Johnson denounced them as dishonest swindlers? Are sex, sensationalism, bias and the invasion of privacy fundamental to journalistic scoops? In this book the author interviews proprietors, journalists - from both tabloid and non-tabloid newspapers - and media victims. He recounts notorious press cases past and present, and discusses issues ranging from chequebook journalism to the Calcutt Committee, from circulation wars to the reporting of issues such as AIDS.
