One Rogue Reporter (2014)

In the riveting docu-comedy, One Rogue Reporter, we delve into the world of Rich Peppiatt, a renegade tabloid journalist who has had his fill of the red top paper's obsession for scandal over substance, and sensationalism over sincerity. When the infamous phone hacking scandal engulfs News of the World, Rupert Murdoch's media empire, Rich sees an opportunity to turn his journalistic prowess against the very press barons who have been peddling lies, fear, and scandals under the guise of journalism. This film is an uproarious and satirical journey that begins as a mere fantasy of confronting the boss with unfiltered truths, a dream few dare to realise, and no one has portrayed on screen until now. It morphs into an audacious crusade against unaccountable press power, transforming into a part investigative exposé, part comedy romp, and part heartfelt outcry against the violation of privacy, public interest, and freedom of expression. With his mischievous stunts and biting interviews, Rich takes aim at the press moguls who exploit these very principles. Notable figures, from comedy legend Steve Coogan and actor Hugh Grant to philosopher AC Grayling and former Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott, lend their voices to this cinematic rebellion. Each interviewee adds depth and dimension to this exploration of the ethical edges of journalism. From the notorious former Sun editor Kelvin MacKenzie to the intimidating Daily Mail chief Paul Dacre, Rich's targets are those whose names fill the headlines, but whose stories remain untold. One Rogue Reporter is an expose of the hypocrisy at the heart of modern journalism, a story you won't find printed on any tabloid's pages. It's a scandalously entertaining ride that dares to question the boundaries of privacy, public interest, and freedom of speech, leaving no stone in the media landscape unturned.

One Rogue Reporter is a comedy movie directed by Tom Jenkinson.
