Mail on Sunday editor David Dillon has kept a low profile up until now without even a press release to announce his appointment back in December.

You won’t find him on Twitter or Linkedin and he’s never done an interview or media appearance (to my knowledge). We don’t have a picture of him on file so I’ve had to settle for this screenshot (above) from the new  DMG Media website.

But he is firmly in the spotlight now, defending his paper’s reporting of Labour Party deputy leader Angela Rayner in the face of claims that its portrayal of her was sexist and demeaning.
