Sean Hoare
Sean Hoare (c. 1963 – c. 17 July 2011) was a British entertainment journalist. He contributed to articles on show business, from actors to reality television stars. He played a central role in contributing to exposing the News International phone hacking scandal.
==Career==
Hoare was described as by ''The Guardians Nick Davies as "coming from a working-class background of solid Arsenal supporters, always voted Labour, defined himself specifically as a 'clause IV' socialist who still believed in public ownership of the means of production."〔 Hoare was a trainee reporter in the 1980s for the ''Watford Observer''.
He was a reporter for ''The Sun'' before joining ''The Sunday People'', under editor Neil Wallis.〔 He moved to the ''News of the World'' in June 2001,〔''The Guardian'', 5 June 2001, (NoW's Taylor promoted to Mr Fixit )〕 under editor Rebekah Brooks (then Rebekah Wade) but was sacked in 2005 by then editor Andy Coulson for drink and drug problems.〔〔 He said in regard to his drug taking while employed by the ''News of the World'', "I was paid to go out and take drugs with rock stars – get drunk with them, take pills with them, take cocaine with them. It was so competitive. You are going to go beyond the call of duty. You are going to do things that no sane man would do. You're in a machine." He claims to have often taken "three grammes of cocaine a day, spending about £1,000 a week" and would drink Jack Daniel's, and then would snort a line of cocaine as part of a "rock star's breakfast".〔 His health deteriorated to the point that the doctor examining his liver remarked that he "must be dead".〔 A former colleague said, "if you could imagine the stereotypical image of ''News of the World'' hack, it would be he."
In 2001, Hoare was awarded a Shafta Award (celebrating "the very worst in tabloid journalism")〔 for his scoop on David and Victoria Beckham's purchase of an island off the Essex coast;〔Sean Hoare, ''The Sunday People'', 21 January 2001, ("Spice Island: Beckhams to buy £6m island off the coast of Essex" )〕 the story, which turned out to be fiction,〔 also won him the 20th anniversary "Shafta of Shaftas" in 2006.〔''The Guardian'', 26 April 2006, (Monkey goes to the Shaftas )〕 He won another Shafta in 2002,〔''The Guardian'', 1 May 2002, (The Shaftas: full list of awards )〕 two in 2003,〔''The Guardian'', 30 April 2003, (Fleet Street's finest honoured )〕 and a lifetime achievement Shafta in 2004.〔''The Guardian'', 28 April 2004, (Shaftas honour best of the worst )〕
