Daily Mail columnist suspended
2023-08-05
[Press Gazette] Dan Wootton’s Mail Online column has been paused while allegations made against him are investigated.
Because the Daily Mail has a following here...
The allegations, published in a series of stories by independent outlet Byline Times, include claims around payments for explicit images and videos and others in relation to alleged behaviour while working at The Sun.

Wootton has denied any criminal wrongdoing although he has admitted to "errors of judgment in the past".

A spokesperson for DMG Media, which publishes Mail Online, told Press Gazette on Thursday: "We are continuing to consider a series of allegations which Dan Wootton — who has written columns for Mail Online since 2021 as one of several outside freelance contributors — has strenuously denied.

"The allegations are obviously serious but also complex and historic and there is an independent investigation underway at the media group which employed him during the relevant period.
