The strange career of Toby Young

In The Independent, Sophie Morris speaks to Guild member Toby Young.

"Journalism in the UK," says Young, "as far as it's a profession at all, is still a profession for ne'er do wells and fuck ups. That isn't the case in America."

A film based on Young's book How To Lose Friends And Alienate People, adapted by Peter Straughan, is out now.
