Get a handle on the scandle - Sex, lies and the front page news.

Rag Tale is a contemporary urban satire set during a week in the life of a tabloid newspaper. Its tyrannical tycoon chairman and clever but desperate editor (who is also sleeping with the chairman's wife) battle for political supremacy in the boardroom, using staff-journalists as pawns in the power-games they play out on the front pages of the press. Set against the backdrop of the U.S. election and the current celebrity culture, Rag Tale gives a witty, behind the scenes look at tabloids and a peak at the darker side of cut throat journalism.
