Soundtrack
The film's score was composed by John Kusiak, who had previously worked with Errol Morris on The Fog of War and First Person. According to Kusiak the process of composing the soundtrack was unusual as Morris "likes to have music early on in the process and he likes to actually edit the film to the music rather than the traditional Hollywood approach.”[5] The soundtrack was officially released on July 12, 2011 by Milan Records.[6]

Release
Tabloid premiered at the Telluride Film Festival on September 3, 2010. The film was picked up for distribution by Sundance Selects and given a wide release on July 15, 2011.[8]

Critical Response
The film was greeted with largely positive reviews. Roger Ebert gave it four stars, favorably comparing the showcasing of multiple, contradictory accounts of the same events, with Morris reluctant to frame any version of the story as "true," to the film Rashomon.[9] A. O. Scott of The New York Times in a review of the film praised Morris for his skills as an interview, saying "Mr. Morris has developed a knack for finding that zone in each person’s character where lucidity intersects with delusion and where the urge to perform collides with the impulse to dissemble. People seem to be inventing themselves in front of his camera and then, a moment later, unmaking themselves."[10] On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 92%, based on 118 reviews, with an average rating of 7.5/10.[11] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 74 out of 100, based on 34 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[12]
