Yesterday, Full Fact's coverage of the press reform debate took a look at what Daily Mail editor Paul Dacre recently told a committee of MPs.

Defending the current system of regulation Mr Dacre described the idea that newspapers “bury” corrections as “one of the great myths of our time.”

An opportunity for the Daily Mail to prove that buried corrections are a myth may soon be available.

Last month we complained about a claim made on the front page of the Daily Mail regarding international aid.







As our factcheck at the time showed this is not correct. The UK's spending is the highest as a proportion of GDP among G8 countries, but other countries outside this group do spend more.

The Press Complaints Commission is currently in the process of resolving our complaint. Should a correction be the agreed outcome, it is clear what page the correction will need to appear on the prove corrections really aren't buried.
