A BBC journalist used deceit to win a sensational 1995 interview with Princess Diana in which she disclosed intimate details of her failed marriage to Prince Charles, and the broadcaster covered up the deception, an independent investigation found.
"By behaving as described... Mr Bashir acted inappropriately and in serious breach" of the corporation's own editorial guidelines on "straight dealing," Dyson added. He returned to work for the corporation as religion editor until he stepped down last week, citing ill health, just hours before Dyson's report was submitted to BBC bosses.A 1996 internal inquiry by future BBC chief Tony Hall and another senior figure, Anne Sloman, cleared Bashir of wrong-doing.In particular, it did not ask Diana's brother, Charles Spencer, for his version of events, Dyson said, lambasting it for failing to scrutinise Bashir's actions properly.
BBC director-general Tim Davie said the corporation accepted Dyson's findings completely, and offered a "full and unconditional apology."Bashir also apologised, saying the faking of the bank statements was "a stupid thing do and was an action I deeply regret." John Birt, director-general of the corporation at the time of the interview, said in a statement: "We now know that the BBC harboured a rogue reporter".
Deceitful BBC As though we didn't know it? Look at their completely biased coverage of the Israel-Palestine issue....they make it sound like some battle of equal footing. And they concoct highly manipulated images and stories to defend the Israeli narrative. They are SOLD

BBC Probe Finds Journalist Used “Deceitful” Methods to Secure Princess Diana Interview“The interview was a major contribution to making my parents’ relationship worse,” Prince William said. “It brings indescribable sadness to know that the BBC’s failures contributed significantly to her fear, paranoia and isolation that I remember' Just how brain washed is William to think that one interview was the reason behind his parent's relationship, Diana's fear, paranoia, and isolation No idiot, it was your father's affairs and rude, bullying behaviour towards Diana that led to ALL of her problems! No William, Charles cheating on Diana with Camilla made the relationship worse. Why is he trying to gaslight his own mother's truth? Princess Diana went against the RF, and see what happened. Why now, does William want her words to never be aired again? I find that very shocking. No, Willy. It was the affair. You know, like the one you had with your wife’s friend.
