Letter: Telling it like it is

Sir: Your television reviewer John Moore says ('The teak tycoon', 27 May) that Citizen Kane would have been proud of a scene in Tom Bower's film (Inside Story: Tiny Rowland) where an editor (me) is shown ringing his proprietor (Tiny Rowland) to tell him what line the newspaper will be taking at a coming general election.

Wrong.

Citizen Kane would have told the editor, not the other way round.

Yours faithfully,

DONALD TRELFORD
