Scandalous! The Tabloid that Changed America - Storyville Sex! Gossip! Scandal! Over the course of 60 years, the National Enquirer became the most infamous tabloid in America, pumping out salacious stories, stretching the limits of journalism, blurring the lines between truth and fiction and changing the cultural landscape forever.With outrageous anecdotes and biting wit, Scandalous traces the newspaper's aggressive and cut-throat style of journalism across some of the biggest stories of our times - the deaths of Elvis and Princess Diana, the OJ Simpson trial and the Clinton impeachment saga. To satiate their readers' obsession with the rich and famous, the newspaper poached veteran reporters from the British tabloid scene and allegedly used payoffs and blackmail to get its scoops. Using rare archive footage, Scandalous is the story of how one American tabloid newspaper's clear-sighted grasp of its readers' darkest curiosities garnered massive profits, influence in powerful places and a central role in Trump's presidency.
