Former Daily Mail editor Paul Dacre is to receive a payout of almost £2m, as the top executives at parent company DMGT share £33m in pay, bonuses and share awards this year – while staff brace for
Job cuts.
Dacre, who stood down as editor in 2018 and until earlier this month was chair and editor-in-chief of the paper’s parent company Associated Newspapers, is to receive the payout in December under one of Daily Mail and General Trust’s long-term incentive plans for senior management.
