The Diaries of a Fleet Street Fox by Susie Boniface
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.

Fleet Street Fox has been a tabloid reporter for more than a decade and started a blog two years ago revealing the inside story of her divorce and chronicling a trade in decline. More recently she has started a news comment blog at www.fleetstreetfox.com which gets 150k hits a month (and growing) and has seen her invited onto Radio 4 Woman's Hour, Newsnight, and Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe.
