Former Sun editor Kelvin MacKenzie clashed with MP Chris Bryant on BBC’s Daily Politics show and also expressed remorse for some the things he did as an editor.
Asked by Andrew Neil if he felt an regret or remorse, he said: “Probably, yes I do.”
And asked whether this included The Sun’s now infamous coverage of the 1989 Hillsborough football disaster, he said:
“If I could revisit Hillsborough, certainly, I would do it in a different way. I would do it in the way the other newspapers did it. They basically ran the story and said ‘big fury over…’ and I wish I had done that, yes.”
