The Fake Sheikh (2023– )
4/10
Creating convictions for Validation
10 October 2023
Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story.

Overview of the man who manufactured situations and manipulated people to create stories for the tabloids in the UK.

It is just a shame he didn't investigate or use his 'skill' on the more deserving criminals of the 90s.

Mind you, if he had journalistic integrity, Rupert Murdoch would have probably fired him from the News of the World.

He didn't land megascoops, as the documentary suggests; he created them.

It is an interesting watch about the pseudo sheikh who spent decades fabricating his brand of news and his downfall when he became the story.
