Paul Dacre returns to Daily Mail

Paul Dacre is back at the Daily Mail after he was appointed editor-in-chief of the parent company's consumer media titles, in the latest upheaval at the publisher of the UK's biggest selling daily newspaper. While the role will not involve day-to-day editing, Dacre will take an "Active role" advising both the Mail's newly appointed editor Ted Verity and the group's chair Jonathan Harmsworth, Viscount Rothermere. On Monday Daily Mail and General Trust said he had been appointed editor-in-chief of DMG Media, whose portfolio includes Metro, the i and New Scientist as well as the Mail titles. His appointment comes just days after the departure of the Mail's editor Geordie Greig, who was replaced by Verity, editor of the Mail on Sunday. Martin Clarke, publisher at DMG Media, said: "Nobody has done more to make the Mail titles what they are today than Paul Dacre and I am honoured to be working with him."
