Publisher's Summary
Ten years ago, the online news platform Buzzfeed published completely false allegations that a British journalist was running a global fake news factory from his offices in Vienna, Austria.
These claims devastated the reputation of an award-winning agency that had existed since 1993, supplying content to some of the biggest media brands in the world.
This book documents the story behind the story and casts a spotlight on the real reason for the decline in trust in the media and the death of journalism.
It shows how the key people involved in the allegations were, in reality, the real culprits that destroyed the credibility of an industry which was supposed to be the watchdog of society.
This book explains how this happened but also offers hope for the future in the lessons learned in exposing a global conspiracy so secret even most of those involved don't know they are a part of it.
