Nope, not Elrond either I'm afraid.
Hint: The exiled king is not of Middle-earth.

You are correct Morsul.
That is so wrong.
  The only literal clue in the question is "head-line writer", although it's a tricksy one. The other elements are cryptic clues (and require a reasonable knowledge of twentieth century European history).

By the way, that lasy post was intended to provide a hint. But don't be put off if you know little of modern European history. You should be able to get it by thinking of a "head-line writer", but you will need to think a little bit laterally.

No. Sorry, Morsul.
 I need a few more guesses before I give any more hints.
