In late 2001, it was revealed that Byers’ political adviser, Jo Moore, had sent an email on 11 September 2001, suggesting that the September 11, 2001 attacks made it “a very good day to get out anything we want to bury”. Moore and Byers survived the resulting outrage, but, in February 2002, the public uproar broke out again. A leaked email from the Department for Transport, Local Government and the Regions’s head of news, Martin Sixsmith, a former BBC news reporter, seemed to warn Moore not to “bury” any more bad news on the day of Princess Margaret’s funeral, implying that she was attempting to do so. On 15 February, the resignations of both Moore and Sixsmith were announced. Later on, however, Sixsmith stated that he had not agreed to go, but rather that Byers had insisted on the head of news’ departure as his price to pay for losing Moore. In May it was confirmed by the Department that Byers had announced Sixsmith’s resignation prematurely, though the Government said that this was due to a misunderstanding, and he had done nothing wrong.
