Following publication by the 大象传媒 Executive this evening of a summary of actions and findings regarding the 2 November Newsnight, a 大象传媒 Trust spokesperson said:

"It is clear from the MacQuarrie report on the November 2 Newsnight that there were serious failures in the normal checks and balances that the Trust expects from 大象传媒 journalism, and these were compounded by the confusion created by the dual reporting structure in News established during the Pollard inquiry. This is very concerning.

"The measures that Tim Davie has put in place are sensible and appropriate while the inquiry carries out its work, and we note that consideration is being given to further action in respect of the November 2 Newsnight. We expect to receive regular updates on this issue from the acting Director-General as he works with the utmost urgency to restore public confidence in the 大象传媒 and the integrity of its journalism."
