history
Alfred Harmsworth brought out the women's magazine Daily Mirror in 1903 . Since this format was not well received, he soon developed a new one. The newspaper was bought in January 1914 by Alfred's brother Harold Harmsworth and on July 12, 1984 by Robert Maxwell , today it belongs to the Trinity Mirror media group .
The paper is believed to be loyal to the Labor Party and has a strong anti-German stance, which is particularly evident during international football tournaments. In 1996 the newspaper Deutschland declared the "football war". In May 2004, she published photos allegedly showing British soldiers abusing Iraqi prisoners. The photos soon turned out to be fakes; the then editor-in-chief resigned.
In 2012, media attorney Mark Lewis told the BBC that four plaintiffs accused the Mirror media group newspapers ( The Daily Mirror , Sunday Mirror and The People ) of wiretapping phones, among other things. The allegations concern a period of more than ten years ago.
