An exploration of the influential tabloid, the National Enquirer.
I previously wrote about the film for DOC NYC’s program, saying:
At the forefront of tabloid journalism for more than 60 years, the National Enquirer has left an indelible mark on American culture. Its brand of attention-grabbing headlines and sensationalistic coverage captivates curious readers even as it stretches the limits of truth. Director Mark Landsman delves into the shocking yet true story of the most infamous newspaper in US history, detailing its wild history and its surprising continuing role in shaping what the news has become and what the enquiring public wants to know.
