Pier Morgan for a decade has been a newspaper editor, firstly for The News Of The World, then he moved to The Daily Mirror, where he made his mark in news media. The book begins with a prologue at the end of his career, where those infamous photographs of British soliders abusing Iraqi's hit his front page and were proved to be fake. In 2004 his career as a newspaper editor ended after a decade of making the news. The book is written as a diary, covering the ten years of being a newspaper editor and it is a riveting read, that is very hard to put down. The Insider contains fascinating insight into our political leaders, the backstabbing, the diva like demands and the problems that occur when you upset the PM's wife. The period that this book is written covers what must have been an exciting time to be a journalist and is an eye opener into the characters of the celebraties and the way they can use the media, for their personal battles. He writes unflatteringly about many people that he meets. His accounts of his meetings with the Late Princess Diana, his friendship with Sarah Ferguson, his rivals and media moguls are all good entertainment. The cut-throat world of winning the war for the best, tabloid front page is amusing as the stakes to sell the most newspapers and win the tabloid war is intense. This books will make you laugh, cry, educate and grap you attention until you have read the very last page.
