Princess Diana ‘Panorama’ Interview: BBC Apologizes, Pays Whistleblower Mark Killick ‘Significant Sum’
Naman Ramachandran The BBC and Mark Killick have reached a settlement over the infamous 1995 BBC Princess Diana “Panorama” interview. Princess Diana was interviewed by journalist Martin Bashir on the program. An independent investigation into the program, conducted by Lord Dyson, found that the public broadcaster “fell short of the high standards of integrity and transparency which are its hallmark.” The Dyson report also found that Bashir used deceitful methods to gain access to Princess Diana, including allegedly forging bank statements.Killick, formerly a “Panorama” senior reporter and producer, informed the BBC about the forged bank statements.
