The BBC is reviewing its editorial practices after a recent investigation found that the news organization covered up “deceitful behavior” used by former journalist Martin Bashir to land an interview with Princess Diana in 1995.
“We also acknowledge that audiences had a right to expect better from the BBC,” the network's board said Monday about the report’s findings. “It is right that we review the effectiveness of the BBC's editorial policies and governance in detail.”
The May 20 report authored by retired Supreme Court judge Lord Dyson found the BBC had covered up deceptive tactics used by Bashir — including having bank statements forged — to secure the interview with the princess of Wales, who died in 1997.
