Hoffman: I believe what I read too

Screen legend Dustin Hoffman has criticised the way the media brainwashes people into believing everything they read - but confesses to succumbing to their power himself.

The Meet the Fockers star's career in Hollywood has taught him how journalists twist reality to create good stories - he points to an urban myth claiming he was told to have cosmetic surgery if he wanted the lead part in The Graduate as a pertinent example.
