Synopsis

This is the riveting story of the rise of THE INDEPENDENT and THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY; a story of professional journalism, but also a personal account of broken friendships and internecine wars within the company. Glover became editor of THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY but in June 1991 he resigned, along with several of his colleagues, following disagreements over the running of the paper. Andreas Whittam Smith, Matthew Symonds and Stephen Glover founded THE INDEPENDENT in 1986. It succeeded beyond anyone's expectations and became a leading business success story of the 1980's.
