This brilliant book by Nick Davies, unrelenting in its research, ruthless in its honesty, is a landmark expose by a courageous insider. All those interested in truth - outsiders and insiders - should read it.
John Pilger
A must-read for anyone worried about journalism - which, on this analysis, should be everyone.
Ian Hislop
This is an exceptionally important book which should be read, re-read and inwardly digested by all reporters, editors and proprietors.
Peter Oborne
By turns riveting and rollicking, a truly shocking book that had to be written and must be read.
Mike Jempson, director of Mediawise Trust
This is an excellent and explosive book. I would have been poud to have written it myself.
Roy Greenslade
Meticulously researched and fascinating
Observer
This timely rallying call is essential reading - for those who write newspapers as well as those who read them
Metro
He must be read alertly and with scepticism, but his main point - that such a reading is less and less possible in our press - is important, vital, urgent. What are we going to do about it?
Financial Times
A genuinely important book, one which is likely to change, permanently, the way anyone reads it looks at the British newspaper industry
LRB
Davies's brilliant expose of contemporary journalism is a must read
Sunday Herald
If you read newspapers, you MUST read this book.
