Here is a documentary from BBC Panorama about Instagram influencers.

The 30 minute film takes a look at the rise of influencers and how they have been able to promote brands using advertising. The documentary also explores how some influencers may have misled some of their followers in the pursuit of money and fame.

The video could be used for the The Media unit (new media).
