For some reason, this one was not widely published.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-38666914

Of course, the report of the investigation is , for some unknown reason, hidden in the entertainment section of the BBC website.
Christ, real semantics with that finding, not exactly a stitch up of Corbyn. No idea what control she has of the actual editing of the segment either- she's only the political editor, so she'll have the news editor above her.
Maybe odd it's in the entertainment section, but I guess it's cos it was TV? At least they ran the story in full- you know it would be a nib at best if it was the DM reporting a finding against it.

Semantics?

They played video of her asking one question, then played his answer to a different one.

As senior political editor for that spot she was directly responsible.

But the Trust found no evidence that there was a deliberate attempt to mislead audiences and noted that the full interview had been published on the BBC website.

Zoe Williams - I backed Owen Smith against Jeremy Corbyn. But I regret it now
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/jan/02/owen-smith-jeremy-corbyn-labour-leadership

Instead, I presented him as a new kind of Labour, distinct from the Kendall/Umunna scene yet with the same photogenic, affable sheen, sympathetic to the Corbyn worldview yet capable of coating it in such a way that normal people could swallow it. The only way all that could make sense was the idea that Corbyn was a busted flush, had proved himself to be incapable, and the best thing people of his persuasion could do for the party was to find someone a little bit like him to take over.
The guardian sorry actual not so sorry apology.

Guardian in tabloid for now. The website has a slightly new look as well.
I don't like the new masthead. Having been through several mag redesigns, I can only imagine the tumescent meetings and email chains that went on when they decided to make 'G' in 'Guardian' upper case.

It looks like they've decided to go back in time to about 2003 with that design.

editor-in-chief Katharine Viner assured readers that “Guardian journalism itself will remain what it has always been: thoughtful, progressive, fiercely independent and challenging; and also witty, stylish and fun.”
Just buy the Beano instead.

I don't like the masthead at all either. The previous one looked nice. Less noticeable and blended in with the paper. The one looks out of place. Awful.

This is literally the first thing I noticed on my browser. The Guardian icon in the tab is proper rubbish. What were they thinking?

The new masthead is about the only place in the Guardian where they haven't mentioned Brexit.
