Daily Mail



Editor  Paul Dacre

Circulation 1,660,110* 

Address Northcliffe House 2 Derry Street London W8 5TT

*October 2014


Thursday 25 September Mail Online and News Corp have settled their dispute over copyright, the Australian reports. News Corp, which owns the Australian, had sent "cease and desist" letter in June, claiming that the Mail was plagiarising its copy.  Details of the agreement are confidential, but Mail Online's Martin Clarke said the matter had been resolved “very much to my satisfaction”. 
A News Corp source told the Australian that it had not backed down: All we ever wanted was for them to stop ripping us off, which has happened.” 

A picture of agony and desperation

Friday 30 May This is not the way anyone wants to see their mother when visiting in hospital.  Margaret Lamberty, 45, was admitted to North Staffordshire hospital with chronic stomach pains at 9am on Sunday 27 April, but doctors could not find out what was wrong with her.
 At 6pm her daughter pressed the emergency call button. When no one had responded after half an hour, she went to the reception desk. 
The Daily Mail reports that five minutes later she photographed her mother crawling on the floor to get help. She died three days later of an undiagnosed blood clot in her bowel.

The Daily Mail has paid substantial damages to JK Rowling and apologised after falsely accusing her of publishing a misleading "sob story" about her life as a single parent. 

Tony Gallagher returns to Mail as deputy editor

tony Gallagher
Wednesday 16 April, 2014 Tony Gallagher is back in the world of newspapers after a three-month sabbatical working at Restaurant Moro in Finsbury. Gallagher was sacked after five years as editor of the Telegraph in January in Jason Seiken's group reorganisation. He soon told Twitter followers that he was heading for the kitchen of his favourite restaurant. Now he is returning to the Mail - his spiritual home, according to Paul Dacre - as joint deputy editor with Jon Staefel. Gallagher was assistant editor at the Mail before joining the Telegraph in 2006.

Food bank investigation brings charity £50,000
Twitter outrage at the Mail on Sunday's food banks spread led to a surge in donations to the Trussell Trust, which administers 400 of them. Reporter Ross Slater - who won Scoop of the Year award for the exposé of Co-op bank chief Paul Flowers - was criticised for posing as a jobless father-of-two to test the system for giving out free food. SubScribe says the investigation was flawed - but that wasn't the problem

Harman, Hewitt, Dromey and the paedophiles 
How raking up old news turned into a story that no one could ignore. Is this legitimate journalism from the paper that accused the CPS of a witch-hunt in pursuing sex abuse claims against 1970s celebrities?

Part 2: We're not giving up
Part 3: The bully wins
Part 4: Hewitt apologises and the Sun joins in

Few can beat the Mail when it comes to presentation. Every paper used this picture, but none of them as well as the Mail. Others tucked it into a corner or just used it as a space filler. This shows how it could be done



Pregnant troops sent home from the front line Women are said to be putting their colleagues' lives at risk because they are having to be flown away from battle zones when they discover they pregnant. Twenty a year. Is this reason enough to demand that every female soldier takes a pregnancy test before deployment? How many male soldiers are flown home for compassionate reasons?
