Max Mosley helped bring down a newspaper, tame the tabloids and shift the goalposts on privacy in the UK
Goodbye Max Mosley, the motorsport executive who helped bring Rupert Murdoch to his knees and had a huge impact on the tabloid media.
Mosley was a relatively obscure figure to most until his sexual proclivities were exposed by the News of the World in 2008.
At the time the News of the World thought the story was an absolute slam dunk and appeared under the headline: “F1 boss has sick Nazi orgy with 5 hookers”.
The paper paid one of the dominatrices to carry a hidden camera and even went as far as to publish footage on its website.
