▍原文
The BBC fell short of "high standards of integrity and transparency" over Martin Bashir's 1995 interview with Princess Diana, an inquiry has found.
Bashir acted in a "deceitful" way and faked documents to obtain the interview, the inquiry said. And the BBC's own internal probe in 1996 into what happened was "woefully ineffective", it added.
The corporation said the report showed "clear failings", admitting it should have made more effort to get to the bottom of what happened at the time.
