Plot
The incredible story behind the phone hacking scandal that shook Rupert Murdoch’s media empire that follows the small group of determined journalists and police officers who uncovered one of the biggest cover-ups in modern British media history. Featuring exclusive access and surprising new interviews with key figures—some speaking for the first time—it traces the trail of evidence that led from a single suspicious story to a scandal that reached the highest levels of power. As the truth emerged, it brought about a reckoning for the world’s most powerful media mogul, culminating in what became known as “the most humble day” of his life.
